To assemble, place a piece of arugula on the toasted baguette. Place a slice of the mozzarella (or scoop of burrata) on top of the arugula. Place a half slice of serrano ham over the cheese. Top the ham with a thin slice of persimmon. Drizzle with dressing. Repeat until ingredients are done. Sprinkle with salt and drizzle with additional lemon juice, if desired.
