With its pumpkin-orange colored skin and tender flesh, this highly versatile fruit is a sure sign that fall is upon us. As a non-astringent variety, the Fuyu Persimmon can be eaten fresh, added raw to a salad, or paired with a nice, soft cheese. Its cooked applications provide even more possibilities like sauces, jams, and jellies.
Feeling adventurous? Then follow the lead of some of our local chefs and cook the persimmon down to a rich puree which can be used to make autumn-inspired cakes, ice cream, or pie fillings!
