How do green and astringent persimmons become crisp and sweet again? There are hard persimmons that can be eaten, which are crunchy and sweet to the taste. The soft ones are especially suitable for the elderly. The method of astringency is also different. Here are two simple and practical methods:

Persimmon is the favorite of many people, in the persimmon is almost ripe, the market will have a variety of persimmons above, some persimmons are ripe, you can directly can eat. Some persimmons need to be brought home and left for a while before they are ready. Others soak the persimmons themselves for a while and then sell them at the market. These persimmons tend to be crunchy and sweet and are very popular with the public.

When I was a kid in my hometown, people would pick persimmons early in the ripening season. Some people would make the persimmons into dried persimmons and put them on the roof for a period of time in the sun, and when they were well exposed to the sun, the dried persimmons were also particularly tasty. In the countryside there is also a persimmon meal, is also the most popular rural people, is the persimmon pick down, the best persimmon pick out, put in the water for soaking. Many people in order to have early to eat the water soaked persimmons, they will choose a large bucket, usually choose ceramic more. It is placed next to a fire, and because the fire is there, the water will remain warm at all times. The top of the ceramic will also be covered with water, so that no air can get in. After waiting for about five days, the persimmons will be ready to eat.

The above is the method I used in my hometown when I was a child, but of course, it is very fast to make dry and astringent persimmons crisp and sweet by soaking them in water for a few days. In the countryside many methods are villagers come up with their own, are in practice come up with.

The persimmon is delicious, but eat it with care, do not eat persimmons on an empty stomach. Because persimmons contain a lot of ellagic acid and pectin, fasting state they are easy to turn into hard pieces of varying sizes under the action of gastric acid; at the same time, do not eat with a lot of protein-containing aquatic products, because protein in the action of ellagic acid is easy to form gastric persimmon stone; in addition, diabetic patients should not be eaten more.
