I received a couple bags of persimmons from my boss and also from my sweet neighbor. My neighbor's kids picked them at a friend's farm- so cute!
So I had to let them get uber-ripe and I started to get impatient! But the first batch finally ripened up and I made this beautiful persimmon bread. I got the recipe from Fat Free Vegan Kitchen and it was so easy, moist, delicious, and a crowd pleaser. I got several, "You can't even tell it's vegan" comments. I was like, "yeah, because vegan food is awesome!" ;)
I slathered each piece with Earth Balance, but it was good plain too.
The next batch of persimmons is ready and I'm going to make persimmon soup! Should be interesting!
I've never actually had a persimmon. I really need to try them!
