Persimmon pickle is a pickle made by thinly slicing firm, unripe persimmon and letting it sit in a pomegranate molasses and olive oil brine, adding a distinctive flavour to the breakfast table. The fruit's firm texture takes on a pleasant crunch once pickled.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the fruit

10 min

Wash the persimmons and slice them thinly.

2

Add the garlic

5 min

Crush the garlic and tuck it between the slices.

3

Make the brine

10 min

Mix the vinegar, water, salt and pomegranate molasses to make the brine.

4

Jar it

5 min

Pour the brine over the slices in the jar.

5

Finish

10 min

Drizzle with olive oil and seal the jar.

Reminder

Make sure the persimmon is firm and unripe — a ripe fruit will fall apart in the brine. Do not eat it before letting the jar sit in a cool spot for a few days, or the flavours will not settle.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

If you cannot find pomegranate molasses, lemon juice with a pinch of sugar creates a similar sweet-sour balance; the colour will be lighter but the flavour character holds.

Trabzon hurmasını yeterince sert seçmediğim için turşu birkaç gün sonra dağılmaya başladı, dokusu hiç hoş değildi. Meyve seçimi konusunda tarif daha net uyarmalıydı diye düşünüyorum.

Haklısınız, meyvenin sertliği bu tarifte kritik; olgun ya da yarı olgun Trabzon hurması kesinlikle kullanılmamalı. Uyarıyı adımın başına taşımayı düşüneceğim.
