Persimmon and Creepy Cheese Caprese
Description
I love to use persimmons instead of tomatoes in the fall. The flavor is superb in salads, and their orange color is great for Halloween!

Scale

- Your portion of purple haze cheese
- About 20 leaves of basil, torn in half if large
- 1 TBS balsamic vinegar
