New Zealand Persimmon /pc

New Zealand Persimmon is sold per piece and is a smooth-skinned fruit grown in New Zealand with sweet, honeyed flesh once fully ripe. Unlike astringent varieties, this smooth-skinned type can be eaten while still firm, with a milder sweetness that intensifies as it softens.

• Eat fresh out of hand once fully ripe and soft
• Slice into fruit salads or serve with cheese
• Check ripeness by pressing gently, as it softens when ripe
• Ripen the persimmon at room temperature, then refrigerate and use within a few days.
