Introduction

Persimmon Autumn Salad

Persimmons are a versatile fruit: they’re subtle, sweet but not overpowering and depending on how ripe they are, can be juicy or dry. For this salad I like to use fresh, young persimmons that tend to be dry so that it contrasts with the apples and pickled onions.

Ingredients

  • Persimmon, sliced
  • Apple, sliced
  • Pickled red onion 
  • Basil leaves, a handful
  • Prosciutto

For homemade pickled red onion, soak sliced red onion in apple cider, coconut sugar and sea salt and let it sit for 2-3 days.

Drizzle with olive oil and serve!
