    I never thought of using persimmons in a salad, I usually eat them on their own :) Looks like a great idea, especially combined with beets!

    Now you have me at a standstill. I just can't do beets although I admire their beauty. But husband LOVES beets - so I try to serve them - you know - once a year! So maybe beetroot-persimmon salad for him and persimmon salad for me! You can't beat that lovely color mixture!

    I have a persimmon tree in my front yard. The birds enjoyed most of my fruit this season. I really enjoy persimmons and many Americans are not familiar with this tasty fruit. I typically serve them in salads too.
