Rainbow Persimmon Salad

 

Persimmons are in season in Australia from late February to mid-June (autumn and winter) and I just LOVE them! This seasonal rainbow persimmons salad is seriously tasty - and good for you.

You can use persimmons in a salad just like you would a peach. It goes perfectly with any cheese and is beautifully sweet. 

If you haven't tried an Australian persimmon yet, I highly recommend you give it a go.
