Recipe Notes
Soaking the toothpicks makes it easier for the cheese to go on without breaking.
When you assemble the mini skewers, make sure that the tomato is open-facing downward so it’s easy to lay on your platter.
Tellicherry Black Pepper. Once you try this, you won’t have any other type of black pepper. TRUST ME.
