I love this story and so glad I’ve been included in the annual soup off! I think I have a recipe for persimmon cookies that my mom used to make. I’ll check!
For 36 years of my life, "persimmons" was a word that meant I was reading Asian or Asian immigrant poetry, a very lovely word referring to a fruit I'd never even seen.
Then my work had a bowl of Fuyu persimmons and my life changed. I'm mad for them. Can't eat enough. I go crazy during persimmon season.
