Ingredients
- 1 kg nearly ripe persimmons (peeled)
- 100 g sugar
- 200 g water
- 1 cinnamon stick (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Persimmons
Peel the persimmons and cut them in half. Set them aside. - Make the Syrup
In a saucepan, combine the water and sugar. Heat over low heat until the mixture begins to boil and the sugar is dissolved. - Cook the Persimmons
Add the persimmons and cinnamon stick (if using) to the syrup. Simmer gently for 10-15 minutes, taking care not to overcook, as the persimmons should remain intact. - Cool and Store
Turn off the heat, transfer the persimmons to a bowl, and let them cool. Store them in the refrigerator if consuming soon. - For Long-Term Storage
If you have a large batch, preserve them in jars:- Place the persimmons in sterilized jars and seal them tightly.
- In a large pot, place a clean kitchen towel at the bottom and arrange the jars upside down on top.
- Cover the jars with water and boil for 15-20 minutes.
- Remove the jars, allow them to cool slightly, and tighten the lids. Store in the refrigerator.
