We actually get local persimmons here (Austin) in the fall, but I think they're gone for the season now. I'm tucking this recipe away for next year! Your ice cream sounds wonderful!

My grandparents, who live in southern Mississipi, have a few trees in their yard. I remember eating them over the sink or a bowl. I think my grandma made preserves out of them. I recently found some at a farmer's market here, in central TX; my husband and I eat the whole box with a bit of cream in one sitting. I love persimmons!

Yes, I have experienced the astringency of an unripe persimmon! Much better to wait! That looks delicious! Yes, I have experienced the astringency of an unripe persimmon! Much better to wait!

Fuyu are the non-astringent variety that can be eaten when firm; the texture is crisp like an apple, but the flavor is more like a mango. I love to slice one up, then spread the slices with mascarpone cream cheese. A few fruits really ripened until very soft, though, and I couldn't decide what else to do with them (most baked recipes weren't gluten-free and I didn't have time or inspiration to experiment this week). I'll try them in ice cream. What a great idea! I've been reading up on persimmon trees and think I'll plant one in the garden. We've removed our lawn and are replacing with more "lazy" edibles instead. Ann Marie of Cheeseslave blog just put up a post about Chaffin orchard, too. Then I got an email from www.localharvest.org about their mandarin oranges, too. I just sent a 15# box of oranges to my folks in the Northeast to brighten their December days with some California "sunshine".
