Certified organic Fuyu persimmons are a premium non-astringent variety prized for their sweet, honeyed flavor and versatile texture. These small to medium-sized fruits feature glossy, vibrant orange to orange-red skin and pale orange flesh that is dense, smooth, and crisp when firm, softening to an aqueous, tender consistency as they ripen. Unlike astringent persimmon varieties, Fuyu persimmons are low in tannins and can be enjoyed at any stage of ripeness without the unpleasant dry mouthfeel. The flavor profile is rich and sweet with nuances of cinnamon, pears, dates, and brown sugar.

Each 3-pound package contains several whole fruits that are seedless or may contain one to two seeds. The fruits are harvested at peak ripeness with fresh green leafy calyxes. Fuyu persimmons are excellent eaten fresh out of hand when firm and crisp, sliced into salads, grain bowls, or cheese boards, wrapped in cured meats as an appetizer, or used as a topping for toast and pizza. They can also be cooked into jams, jellies, sauces, baked goods, roasted as a side dish, or dried into chewy snacks. Store unwashed with the leaf side down in the refrigerator for 7 to 14 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.

These organic persimmons are a source of vitamin C to strengthen the immune system, fiber to regulate the digestive tract, vitamin E to reduce inflammation, and potassium to balance fluid levels. They also provide phosphorus, vitamin K, calcium, magnesium, iron, manganese, B vitamins, and beta-carotene which converts to vitamin A for healthy organ functioning and vision support.
