PERSIMMON PUDDING



Persimmon Pudding image

Wild persimmons start to blush along the country roads of Indiana in late September, stealing the colors of sunset and weighing down their trees like Christmas balls. They are native to the landscape, unlike the Chinese and Japanese varieties cultivated in California and found in grocery stores. Foraging carries on through November, when the fruit claims a place at the Hoosier Thanksgiving table in the form of a dark gold pudding, distant kin to the sweet persimmon bread offered to early colonials by the Cherokee. This recipe comes from Alverta S. Hart of Mitchell, Ind. This fall, the town hosted its annual Persimmon Festival and as always, the most suspenseful event was the persimmon pudding contest. Ms. Hart submitted her first pudding in 1962 as an 18-year-old bride, and re-entered every year for nearly four decades until she became a judge, then chairwoman of the event, winning on and off and collecting every color of ribbon along the way.

PERSIMMON PUDDING



Persimmon Pudding image

Sweet and juicy persimmons are the base of this classic holiday pudding recipe from "The Martha Stewart Living Christmas Cookbook." Soft whipped cream can be served as an alternative topping to sour lemon sauce.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup vegetable oil, plus more for mold
4 to 5 large, very ripe persimmons
3/4 cup sugar
6 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Sour Lemon Sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • Oil an 8-cup lidded pudding mold with vegetable oil; set aside.
  • Peel persimmons and transfer to a medium bowl. Mash flesh, removing black seeds (you should have 2 3/4 cups of pulp); set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whisk together sugar and eggs on medium-high until fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add oil and vanilla; mix until well combined. Add persimmon pulp and mix to combine.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Add to persimmon mixture and mix just until smooth, scraping down sides of bowl once during mixing. Transfer mixture to prepared mold and cover with an oiled parchment paper round; cover mold with lid.
  • Bring a kettle of water to a boil over high heat. Fit a large pot with a rack and place filled pudding mold on rack in pot. Add just enough boiling water to come halfway up the mold. Place pot over high heat and bring to a boil; immediately reduce heat to a simmer and cook until pudding springs back when touched, about 2 1/2 hours, adding more boiling water as necessary to maintain water level.
  • Remove mold from pot and uncover. Let pudding cool in mold for 1 hour, then carefully run a sharp knife around the top edge of the pudding to loosen from the mold and invert carefully onto serving platter. Serve with sour lemon sauce.

PERSIMMON-SWEET POTATO PUDDING

Steamed Persimmon Pudding image

Two kinds of persimmons are recruited for steamed pudding; soft, ripe hachiyas are used in the batter, and oven-dried slices of fuyu -- resembling orange flowers -- form a ring around the dessert. The pudding is full of golden raisins, pecans, and candied ginger and warmed by brandy's sweet heat.

Yield Serves 8 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, plus more for mold

1/4 cup Calvados or other brandy
1/4 cup sultanas (golden raisins)

1 cup pecans, toasted and coarsely chopped
1/4 cup finely chopped candied ginger
Oven-Dried Persimmon Slices, for garnish

Steps:

  • Butter a 12-cup pudding mold. Fill a large pot fitted with a steamer insert with enough water to come halfway up mold (test this with an empty mold); set aside. Sift flour, spices, and salt in a bowl; set aside. Put Calvados and sultanas into a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer. Remove from heat; let stand 15 minutes. Drain; discard liquid.

Tips

  • Choose the right persimmons. Fuyu persimmons are the best type to use for this pudding, as they are less astringent than other varieties. Look for persimmons that are ripe but still firm, with no bruises or blemishes.
  • Peel and core the persimmons before cooking. This will help to remove any unwanted bitterness from the fruit.
  • Use a food processor or blender to puree the persimmons. This will make them smooth and easy to incorporate into the pudding.
  • Don't overcook the pudding. The pudding is done when it is set and no longer jiggles when the dish is shaken.
  • Serve the pudding warm or cold. It can be enjoyed on its own or with whipped cream, ice cream, or fruit.

Conclusion

Persimmon sweet potato pudding is a delicious and nutritious dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its unique flavor and texture, persimmon sweet potato pudding is sure to become a new favorite in your home.
