[SPAM] breakfast thing for SAD people???

[Guest guest]

Mmmmm--I tried the persimmon pudding this morning--yum! I did have a bit of an

allergic reaction to it, sorta like I used to have with bananas when I was a

kid. I would get an itchy throat and ears, and sometimes the inside of my mouth

would get small whelp-like things on it, and my ears would get itchy, kind of an

ear-throat thing. It's much better now, but I don't eat certain raw fruits,

veggie, and nuts (at least not by themselves) because of this reaction. The

persimmons seemed to give me a slight headache and itchy throat and mouth, but

it didn't last.

 

My 19-yo son didn't like it, probably the texture, but DH said it was " all

right. " Coming from him, that's good.

Hi, Shari!

I've peeled my persimmons since I've only used ripe fuyus. Is that

necessary? I thought I would try it with the peeling but I haven't

yet. It is wonderful without any spices and I have you to thank for

suggesting it in the first place. There's a picture of my persimmon

pudding on my blog here http://tinyurl.com/ykhkux that I had on

Thanksgiving. You'll have to scroll down the page to see it. A SAD

person told me it looked good!

 

The hard fuyus are good, too. Like a different fruit altogether.

Blend until it's all smooth and creamy. Eat.

going to the kitchen now. I just picked up about 15 pounds of the

little dears. Some are ready to eat and some won't be ready until

Christmas! I like the Hychia best. They are the ones that have to be

so very, very ripe or it feels like they are rolling the skin off

your tongue! But they are so very, very good when they are that

ripe. I've told my co-op to not ever throw away a persimmon even if

they think it's rotten, it will most likely be perfect for me!
