Persimmon
Persimmon or kaki – as we called it here – is for me one of the synonyms for autumn. This beautiful orange-dyed fruit is best appreciated in its raw state, either on its own or as an ingredient of fruit salad or similar. And this is how I used the last 2 pieces of fruit I had: with fresh ricotta and walnuts, and in a yogurt drink. So tasty and so healthy!
Persimmon with fresh ricotta and chopped walnuts - you don't need any sweetener here
Persimmon yogurt drink
Perfect for breakfast or snack. I loved them both. See you next season, kaki!

i have never taken to persimmon – i find its taste too astringent
There are 2 types of persimmon available on the market, astringent and non-astringent. The latter (=the one I buy) is incredibly sweet and juicy, and is eaten with skin – you should give it a try once, you’d like it for sure!
