Update: I knocked on the neighbor's door. She said take as many buddha hands as I would like, and if I want persimmons to just let her know #scorestr

I love persimmons!

Same! I am thinking I could do cookies or a jam with them too

Definitely! I am going to plant two persimmons next year so I got years to wait.

Very cool looking. Those are new to me.

Apparently they're not very tasty as a fruit but have amazing essential oils.

They're used as a spiritual offering in SE Asia

They also look good for flavouring alcohol & as an air freshener.

Such a cool fruit.

I am thinking candied buddha hand bc I love sour candy (i think it must stimulate my vagus nerve or some good neuro chemicals lol). I looked at diy steam distillation for essential oil, which is doable but seems tedious. Or letting it sit in high proof alcohol and using in cooking in the future.

This fruit has whites that Are usable unlike lemon or lime.

A nice way to use this is shaving it over icecream 🤌🏻
