The way to cut and eat a persimmon depends on what kind of persimmon it is: Hachiya or Fuyu.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Fuyu Persimmons
  • Hachiya Persimmons
  1. Step 1

    Wash Fuyu persimmons (which look a little like a squashed tomato), remove core and leaves, and slice or eat whole.

  2. Step 2

    Rinse the acorn-shaped Hachiya persimmons and slice in half. Remove seeds and spoon fruit out of skin.

Tips & Warnings
  • Add the firm Fuyu persimmon slices to salads.
  • Puree Hachiya persimmon flesh and add it to drinks or fresh fruit sauces. You can also use the puree to make cookies.
