Prepare your serving dishes, either shallow bowls or a large platter. Rinse the fresh arugula under cold water and fill the bottom of your dishes generously.

Wash and slice your cherry tomatoes; some can remain whole while others should be halved. Scatter these atop the arugula.

Gently place a ball of burrata onto the center of the arugula bed. Make sure the burrata is fresh and at room temperature.

Sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt and black pepper over the salad, focusing on the burrata.

Drizzle high-quality olive oil and balsamic vinegar over the salad, allowing the dressing to cascade over the greens and cheese.

Tear fresh basil leaves and sprinkle them on top. Serve your salad immediately.
