Nutritional Info Per Serving: N/A
4 Fuyu (firm, squat) persimmons, cut into thin wedges (or pears, figs, apples)
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 tsp. mustard
1 tsp. honey
3 tbsp. sherry or balsamic vinegar
7 tbsp. olive oil
salt and pepper
seeds from 1 large pomegranate (about 1 cup)
IMPORTANT: remember to use the Fuyu persimmon here (it can be used when it's still firm; the other kind of persimmon that's longer and not as squat must be ripened until it's kind of mushy) it is VERY astringent in the firm state; DO NOT SUBSTITUTE
