Seasonal Fruit: Persimmon
Looks like a tomato. Tastes like a dream.
October/November is persimmon season. Gone by December!
I just noticed that they sell them at the fruit stands in my neighborhood for cheap! The ones they sell are the fuyu variety (squat like a pumpkin). There is also a longer, acorn shaped variety called the hachiya. Both yum.
Tips:
1. Only eat ripe. It should be a little soft. It is SUGARY SWEET and delicious :)
2. You may or may not like the thick skin. I don't. I spoon the meat out of the skin.
