Persimmons are presented as the <\/strong>quintessential Mediterranean fruit<\/strong> . In winter, they bring a beautiful orange color to market stalls. Rich in carotenoids and fibre, this fruit can be enjoyed from October to January. But how do persimmons ripen?<\/p>\n\n\n\n When persimmons are ripe, they can be harvested directly from the tree branch. This is the case of the apple persimmon, a delicate variety that can be harvested from the tree when ripe. But more often the persimmons are harvested unripe and left in special boxes to ripen delicately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Before eating persimmons, you need to make sure that they are ripe. First of all, you need to know that there are two types of persimmons<\/strong> : astringent persimmons, with a beautiful red color, a thin skin and tasty pulp, and persimmons with firm pulp, which are less fragile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To obtain a ripe persimmon in a short time, place the fruit at room temperature next to an apple or a banana. These two fruits emit ethylene, which helps the persimmon ripen<\/strong> . To speed things up even further, place the persimmon and banana together in an airtight food bag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Progressive ripening<\/strong> allows you to dose the addition of apples to the box of unripe persimmons. It is especially beneficial for helping you ripen fruits in a staggered manner<\/strong> . This way, you will have persimmons ready to eat from November to January.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Another tip is to store persimmons in an airtight box<\/strong> with a glass of cognac<\/strong> . Guaranteed effect on the fruits, which will ripen quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you want to ripen the persimmon slowly, so that it is filled with sugar and tastes better, just place it in a fruit basket in front of a sunny window<\/strong> . The fruit will ripen slowly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Astringent persimmons turn dark red or even brown when fully ripe. Since the pulp is soft, you can taste it with a teaspoon by removing the top part of the fruit<\/strong> . For persimmons with firm flesh, cut them into quarters or munch on the fruit directly!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Persimmons are presented as the quintessential Mediterranean fruit .
