    Because of your videos I ordered my first persimmon in January. Then you did another video talking about the different varieties. Now I have 3. Thanks James. 😉 You have inspired men to create a food forest (its 2 years old) and I'm really enjoying myself.

    Once upon a time when we lived in the country when my Dad was logging and my mom was anything that needed to be done and a wife she loved persimmon's and would stand at the trees to eat them, she would then bake a bread using them (on the lines of banana bread) which we had as toast in am or even as a treat at night. Try googling for a recipe for persimmon bread. You live it!

    • @nicolethebumblebee
      @nicolethebumblebee 4 года назад +2

      @@ikeshia1981 I think it probably depends on how ripe they are. If they aren't ripe enough they don't really taste like anything I find, but when they are ripe they are the perfect sweetness. This time of year is the only time they're in grocery stores here, but I live in Ontario, Canada, so I'm not sure about Texas! But definitely try them if you find them! 🙃

      Persimmons are extremely delicious & everyone needs to try some! If they are available where you live- buy the one that looks like a slightly squashed down tomato (the Fuyu-asian) very orange & still firm (like a 'green' tomato just about to turn red in your hand) it will taste like a cinnamon-spiced peach with a hint of pumpkin.
      If you buy the 'American' it is VERY BITTER to eat raw- it is not pleasant! I have no idea why James described it as a cucumber taste unless the hybrid has lost all its original flavor in favor of a compromise. They are about 60 cents each in stores here (likely Meijer & Kroger, for sure, but i am not sure whatever other supermarkets in various locations)

    It's my understanding that they are traditionally pressed and dehydrated to preserve. I have a family member that works for Mitsubishi Electric... she has connections... 😉. You can try this... Dehydrate them like an apricot and cut them into supper tiny little cubes, then mix with sweetened coconut flakes (about 1 part persimmon to 3 parts coconut) then add enough sweetened condensed milk to hold the mixture together into a ball. You then roll the sticky 1" balls in a crushed walnut or pecan and refrigerate. They are my kids favorite Christmas treat. You can substitute papaya or apricot in a pinch. Hope this helps you get some longer life out of your harvest. 💚
