The sweet persimmons are growing rapidly. When they are ripe, please come and taste the delicious fruit! Even better, there's free sampling! You can try both soft and hard persimmons.
* Soft persimmons: Cut in half and scoop out the flesh with a large spoon.
* Crunchy persimmons: Rinse the skin, peel it with a peeler, and enjoy. Alternatively, slice them up with a knife and savor the flavor.
Usually, persimmons picked from the orchard are crunchy. If you find a soft one, it's likely overripe and not picked in time.
If you want to enjoy soft persimmons at home, leave them at room temperature for 4-5 days, and they'll turn red and soft.
Refrigerating persimmons slows down the ripening process, making them stay crunchy and sweet with a better texture.
