PERSIMMON CRANBERRY SAUCE
From Gourmet, November 2005; put here for safekeeping after making it for Thanksgiving 2011 and LOVING it. The anise imparts a flavor of cherry and vanilla that's really delicious. Would also likely be good with pomegranates, a tiny dice of ripe pear... Cooks' note: Cranberry sauce, without persimmons, can be made 4 days ahead and chilled, covered. Fold in persimmons before serving.
