Or you can leave them on your countertop and enjoy their loveliness until they are ripe.Carolinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00591131876354165885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21900544.post-71448696379501753032011-11-10T11:55:33.987-08:002011-11-10T11:55:33.987-08:00I was so lucky to get your handpicked ones.

No fruit yet in year 3, I believe.<br /><br />I see I'm not the only one to wonder about ripening.Stefaneenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08422241601075022500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21900544.post-69814714744343719992011-11-08T09:26:36.200-08:002011-11-08T09:26:36.200-08:00I posted a galette with frangipane recipe to your ...I posted a galette with frangipane recipe to your FB. I haven't made it (yet), but it sounds lovely. We're still waiting for our 'Chocolate' persimmons to ripen. Alternatively, how about a simple persimmon Clafouti, just to be a little different? I think the only recipe we have posted thus far is for grandma's persimmon cookies.Curbstone Valley Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714297348566721344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21900544.post-32124228355881187872011-11-08T09:10:11.061-08:002011-11-08T09:10:11.061-08:00Let them get orange before using them or they are ...Let them get orange before using them or they are pretty bitter.
