Beautiful illustrations! We usually eat the whole ripe persimmon raw. It’s delicious! Have you noticed how when it’s really ripe (or a little frostbitten on the way home from the market) the skin turns almost translucent? Amazing fruit…
I love Persimmons! Fuyu is the kind my family and I get every fall/ winter and we eat them like apples. I leave the peel on cause I like the extra crunch. Thanks for this post! Glad there are others who know and love Persimmons.
Such a lovely blog and a great idea. Love the style of your drawings and also the font you have to go with them. I don’t think I’ve ever tried a persimmon but I’d like to!
Footnote: You can actually eat the peel of fuyu persimmons, so this last step is optional. But, I always peel mine!

I’ve always eyed these little guys in the grocery store and wondered how to eat them! So cool.
Glad to help! You should really give fuyus a try. They’re my favorite!
Deliciously succulent illustrations. Now, I am craving persimmons!
Love your site and drawings! Cheers!

I adore your illustrations! This one even inspired me with the following taste test:
These are one of the few fruits I’m able to eat without an allergic reaction, my favorite to say the least. I leave the skin on, yumm
