Persimmon

This year, the highly anticipated Korean persimmons from the City of Changwon have returned to Vancouver, bringing with them the juicy and crunchy Fuyu variety. Perfect for enjoying on their own or incorporating into both sweet and savory dishes, these persimmons are incredibly versatile. Inspired by this delicious fruit, I decided to use them in one of Korea’s popular winter desserts, Chapssaltteok (Korean rice cakes).
