Yield Makes 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups sugar
2 tablespoons plus 1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
Large pinch of salt
2 1/2 cups hot water
7 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 tablespoons freshly grated lemon zest

Steps:

  • In a heatproof bowl set over (but not touching) simmering water, mix together sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Add hot water and cook, 3 to 5 minutes, whisking gently, until thick.
  • Add the butter, lemon juice, and zest and continue cooking, stirring gently, for about 5 minutes. Cool slightly before using, but do not refrigerate (the sauce will become aspic-like) and do not reheat.

This sauce is amazing! I've never had anything like it before. The lemon and persimmon flavors are a perfect match.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce turned out really runny. I think I might have added too much lemon juice.

This sauce is a bit too tart for my taste. I think I'll try adding a little bit of sugar next time.

This sauce is so easy to make, and it's so delicious. I've used it on persimmon pudding, but I think it would also be great on other desserts, like ice cream or cake.

This sauce is a great way to use up leftover persimmons. I had a bunch of persimmons that were about to go bad, so I made this sauce and it was a great way to use them up.

I'm not a huge fan of persimmon pudding, but this sauce made it much more enjoyable. The lemon flavor really brightens up the pudding.

I've made this sauce several times now, and it's always a hit. It's so easy to make, and it really elevates the persimmon pudding.

This lemon sauce is a perfect complement to the persimmon pudding. The tartness of the lemon cuts through the sweetness of the pudding, and the result is a dessert that is both refreshing and satisfying.
