Persimmon and Radish Salad

Persimmon and Radish Salad

This simple salad is made with fuyu persimmon and small radish which are both in season during fall through winter. Known as the national fruit of Japan, persimmons have been loved by the people of Japan for over a thousand years. Persimmons are naturally sweet, and they can be eaten firm or soft after being ripened. For this salad, it’s best to use persimmons that are ripe but still firm.

We tossed thinly sliced persimmon and radish with a simple vinaigrette dressing. Presley adds an accent flavor and color. The size of persimmon and radish varies, so adjust the amount if necessary. You can add more or less persimmon or radish, depending on your liking, too.
