This colorful salad, a mix of spinach, sweet persimmon, prosciutto and plenty of Parmesan-laced croutons, is satisfying enough for a light dinner. Or serve it as a somewhat unusual first course. Make sure to add enough oil and vinegar at the end to just coat the spinach, but not weigh the leaves down. The croutons can be made the day before; store them in an airtight container at room temperature.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and cook until fragrant and lightly colored, about 2 minutes. Place bread in a bowl. Toss with the warm oil and garlic cloves, cheese and, 1/4 teaspoons each salt and pepper. Arrange croutons on a large baking sheet. Toast, tossing occasionally, until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Cool.
- In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Whisk in remaining 2 tablespoons oil.
- In a large bowl, combine spinach, prosciutto, persimmon, and croutons. Add dressing and toss well. Taste and add more seasonings, oil and/or vinegar if necessary.
