Hello again!
Today's autumn food is both lovely to look at and - with its delicate sweetness - absolutely delicious to eat. Today at Berlitz WordMaster, we're serving up ...
PERSIMMON 柿
- A persimmon is a sweet, reddish-orange fruit that (in Japan) becomes ripe in autumn and is usually eaten raw or dried.
- persimmon（柿）は、甘くて赤みがかったオレンジ色の果物です。日本では秋に実る果物で、生のまま、または干して食べます。
- Have you ever had sliced persimmons with yogurt and cinnamon? It makes a great snack.
- I often take along a bag of dried persimmons when I go hiking.
- When autumn neared, we always looked forward to our grandmother's spicy persimmon cookies.
Let's slice up one more, shall we?
