Tip
When choosing persimmons, there are a few key factors to consider in order to select the best ones. Here are some tips to help you choose ripe and delicious persimmons:
Colour: Look for persimmons with vibrant, rich colors. The specific color will depend on the variety you are selecting. For example, Fuyu persimmons should have a deep orange hue, while Hachiya persimmons should be a bright orange-red. Avoid persimmons that appear green or pale.
Texture: Gently squeeze the persimmon to assess its firmness. Fuyu persimmons should be firm yet slightly soft, similar to a ripe tomato. Hachiya persimmons, on the other hand, are typically softer and have a custard-like texture when fully ripe. Choose persimmons that yield slightly to pressure without being mushy.
Method
Add all of your ingredients to the blender.
Blend all together – touch power button and select vacuum/blend and let the blender do its thing.
