FUYU PERSIMMON SALAD



Fuyu Persimmon Salad image

The Fuyu persimmon, round and squat and rather tomato-shaped, is the kind you can eat raw. You want to buy the ones that have turned truly orange (if they are greenish-gold, let them ripen for a few days), then peel them and slice them. The flesh is firm but sweet. Eat them plain, in the Japanese fashion, with a pot of tea. Fuyus persimmons make wonderful salads, too.

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 shallot, finely diced
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar

Steps:

SWEET FUYU PERSIMMON SALAD



Sweet Fuyu Persimmon Salad image

Got this off the internet. Turned out to have a very nice flavor and was beautiful. I also enjoyed the textures together. Be sure to use the firm, flat, non-astringent "Fuyu" persimmon NOT the squishy dry out your mouth kind.
