And they make such awesome pudding!

Pomegranate Persimmon Salad With Maple Vinaigrette
Pomegranates and persimmons are two slightly out-of-the-ordinary fruits for the Western palate but are still easy to find. They’re right in that sweet spot between unusual and common that makes them exciting without being threatening. While they can be a bit trickier than your average apples and oranges (persimmons need to be super, super ripe and pomegranate seeds are just so tricky to get at!) the little bit of extra effort is completely worth it. They are really two of the most interesting and delicious fruits.
You can enjoy both these wonderful fruits in this pomegranate persimmon salad!

You can store it in your fridge for a few days and enjoy this superfood salad dressing again.
