Persimmons

In November the persimmons are ripe on my tree.  This year I picked 33 persimmons. The squirrels? They had twenty?  Maybe more.

I have Fuyu persimmons, which can be eaten like an apple.

Or mixed into salads, with

other autumn fruits.

They can be sliced and placed in the oven,

at a very low temperature until dried.


The pulp of very soft persimmons can be baked in a cake.  The recipe for this one is from the Chez Panisse cookbook.
