Persimmon belongs to the Diospyros L.f. perennial deciduous fruit tree of the Ebenaceae family and is native to my country. One of the five major fruits in my country (grapes, citrus, bananas, apples, and persimmons) [1]. The ripening season is around October, and the fruits come in many shapes, such as spherical, almond, approximately cone-shaped, square, etc. The colors of different varieties range from light orange to deep orange-red, the size ranges from 2 cm to 10 cm, and the weight ranges from 100 grams to 450 grams.

It originates in China and has been cultivated for more than a thousand years.

Have you ever seen persimmons blossom into pancakes?

The light yellow flowers are not as showy as the flowers of other plants, but they are very simple.

After bees picked the flowers, small fruits grew.

More than a month later, the small fruit slowly grew up.

After the farmers’ hard work of pruning, fertilizing, spraying, and managing, the persimmons grew to be as big as half a fist.

Persimmons also take shape in September, they will gradually mature, and their color will gradually turn yellow and finally red.

It’s time to pick, baskets of persimmons.

Peeling off the skin of a persimmon is both physical and technical work.

Peeled persimmons are placed on the roof to dry naturally, a gift from nature. In rural areas, people of all ages will help turn the persimmons so that both sides of the persimmons can be dried evenly.

After more than ten days, the persimmons have been dried into persimmons. There is no other income in the countryside. We only make money by selling persimmons all year round. We have to depend on the weather for food. Persimmons are very tempting.

Persimmons

Why don’t you eat persimmons on an empty stomach: Eat them on an empty stomach Persimmons are prone to "persimmon stones"

Because persimmons contain a lot of pectin and tannic acid, the above substances react chemically with gastric acid to form gel blocks that are difficult to dissolve, and it is easy to form gastric stones. If you eat persimmons on an empty stomach, a large amount of persimmon gum phenol and red tannin astringent will condense into hard lumps with gastric acid, forming "persimmon stones". It can easily cause nausea, vomiting, gastric ulcers, and even gastric perforation. Persimmons are less likely to form "persimmon stones" if eaten after a meal.
