To make the most of the last summer evenings outdoors, we were inspired by a fresh cheese appetizer on the menu at the Café RICARDO restaurants. In a shallow plate, spread roasted plums and top them with a lovely plump ball of burratina, prosciutto slices and basil. Try it before the season is over!
