I visited my mom this weekend and she gave me 30-something persimmons picked from my aunt’s persimmon tree. If you’ve never had a persimmon, you’re missing out on something great. It a sweet fruit that can only be eaten at the peak of ripeness when it’s flesh is about the consistency of pudding. Most of the ones I have are very close to ripe. Since I don’t know how to can them or cook with them, it’s been persimmons for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
