Fuyu Persimmons

Honestly speaking, I don't have idea about this fruit. when this fruit caught my attention, thought this is nearly ripe tomato.The first thing landed on my mind is to make a good tomato sauce out of this fruit. At first i was hesitant to purchase this persimmons. but i might feel mad to myself if i don't get it. I was captivated by this fruit that really resembles Roma tomato. It has smooth and shinny skin and very soft flesh once it ripe. The flesh is so soft and taste not really sweet,just enough sweetness. Unlike other fruit, Persimmon has no strong smell or even bad aroma. I' m wonder if this can make into a salad and to a stew with red meat as well. Why not?  this is edible and could be my favorite exotic fruit from now on. So the next time you see this fruit in fresh section, do not misspell on this, This is persimmon and not tomato
