I think I never ate a persimmon yet !
This recipe asks for a lot of honey. Isn’t this fruit sweet from itself ??

I’ve never had persimmons – they look like plums or nectarines. I have blueberries and natural yoghurt with my muesli, but I’m prepared to mix up the fruit.

I am nearly 50 and never tasted a persimmon – the honeyed yoghurt is a fave on my muesli…
