Gemelli with Tomatoes, Arugula and Burrata

Burrata, which means “buttered,” is a luscious, creamy fresh cheese made by mixing together cream and unspun mozzarella curds. When the cheese hits the hot pasta, it melts with the juicy tomatoes and olive oil, forming an irresistible sauce that works its way into the grooves of the twisted noodles.
