On the outside, Fuyu Persimmons sort of resemble orange tomatoes. Slice them in half, and they even look a bit like a seedless tomatoes. But their flavor isn’t tomato-like, at all—it’s sweet! Imagine a fragrant blend of mango and papaya flavors, with faint notes of apricot and cinnamon… and that’s the Fuyu.

#Persimmons make a great snack—most people enjoy them when they are firm, or just beginning to soften a bit. Their honeyed, tropical taste is a nice match for creamy, salty, nutty cheeses and crunchy, bitter greens. Or you can dip them in caramel and roll them in nuts for an unexpected dessert. They also make a lovely addition to your holiday tablescape!
