Dried persimmon 200g

What is persimmon and how is it dried?

Persimmon, also known as sharon fruit or kaki, is a sweet, orange-colored fruit of Asian origin. It is known for its soft texture and intense fruity aroma. When fully ripe, it is especially sweet and juicy, making it ideal for drying.

To produce dried persimmons, ripe fruits are peeled, thinly sliced, and then gently dried. This process significantly reduces the water content and intensifies the natural flavor of the fruit. The resulting persimmon slices have a soft to slightly chewy texture and retain their natural sweetness.

How to consume dried persimmon?

• As a ready-to-eat snack between meals

• Combined with plain yogurt or quark

• As an ingredient in muesli or dried fruit mixes

• For enhancing cakes, desserts, or baked goods

Thanks to its sweet taste, it is a popular alternative to conventional sweets and is perfect for creative recipes with an exotic touch.
