At one of our ladies Bible study, Marcia Haug had given us some persimmons. I had honestly never heard of or seen this fruit before. However, David said that he grew up with 2 persimmon trees on the farm. Marcia had made a persimmon bread for us and it was so good, when she gave us the persimmons I asked if she wouldn't mind sharing the recipe so I could try it out. She did and this is how it turned out.....
 |
| These were the persimmons that Marcia gave us, they were soft and ready to be used for bread. |
 |
| I cut off the ends of the persimmons and the peels, this is what the inside looks like. I had to pick out each seed individually. |
 |
| This is the persimmon insides after I took out all of the seeds. |
 |
| These breads were so yummy. The pans are small so one batch in one pan in the states is about 3 little pans here. |
Unless you can find things frozen, which is only at 1 or 2 stores that sell foreign items and it's very expensive, you have to cook and bake by what is in season. I had enough persimmons for 2 batches, so after I removed the seeds I froze the second batch of persimmons. It will make for a yummy treat later on.
 |
| David found some persimmons on sale for 100yen each, when shopping that week. 100yen is a little more than a dollar. |
 |
| David said that these are some of the biggest persimmons he has ever seen. |
