Persimmon and Smoked Chicken Tartlets
16 servings
20 minutes
The height of the persimmon season falls right on the winter holidays — and you should take advantage of this. After all, persimmon rarely enters into recipe connections, but if it becomes part of a dish, it instantly gives it tone and shares its orange mood. Here's an example: a powerful union of goat cheese, smoked chicken with an excellent balance of sour and sweet, in which the winning taste of persimmon seems even brighter. This combination can easily be used in a salad, but in miniature tartlets it becomes even more artistic: it resembles the Suprematist collages of Malevich, only with taste.
