Tuesdays, I always visit the food market in Zurich. I was standing in front of the cheese counter. Colored cheese! I never saw this before. This cheese caught my attention. What about taste? Basiron is a Dutch cheese. The Pesto Rosso a la Roma is made from tomatoes with Italian spices and the Pesto Verde with basil and garlic.

This wonderful cheese inspired me to create a new recipe. This cheese is just great!
