Peach Prosciutto and Burrata Sandwich at Home

This is the sandwich of the summer.

And it all starts with a Costco baguette. The rest of the sandwich components consist of creamy burrata, juicy peach slices, peppery arugula, fresh basil, salty prosciutto – basically a cacophony of flavors and textures. This sandwich is completely rich!

It’s simple enough for picnic, impressive enough for small gathering or only pain reliable for when you’re in the mood for something special.

To cook this Peach Prosciutto and Burrata Sandwich Set out:

• baguette – I used a Costco baguette.
• salted butter – Helps brown the bread when toasting.
• burrata – Set your burrata out on the counter at least 20 to 30 minutes before using. Bringing it to room temperature will make it more spreadable.
• freshly ground black pepper – Adds distinct bite and flavor.
• balsamic glaze – Lends tang and sweetness. Use kitchen-made or store-bought.
• prosciutto – Lends a salty, meaty texture. Worth keeping Murray’s prosciutto de parma.
• peach – Use ripe (but not overly ripe) white or yellow flesh peaches.
• honey – I used hot honey but regular works simply as well.
• fresh basil – Adds a pop of bright herbaceous freshness.
• baby arugula – A fresh leafy green that is slightly bitter and peppery.

Trim off the ends of your baguette and slice in half. Then cut each half horizontally and spread with butter.

Toast, butter side down, in a skillet over medium heat and cook until golden brown. Remove and repeat with remaining halves.

Place toasted side up on a work surface.

Top both bottom halves with 2 balls burrata. Slice the burrata open and spread to cover the bread.

NOTE: Make sure you set your burrata out for at least 20 minutes so it will be spreadable.

Season the burrata with freshly ground black pepper, drizzle with balsamic glaze and top with slices of prosciutto.

Next, add the peach slices and drizzle with hot honey (or regular honey).

Lastly, add the fresh basil and baby arugula.

Replace the top and cut in half once more, yielding 4 sandwiches total.

Serve with fresh fruit, cut veggies or potato chips!
