The combination of persimmons with Southeast Asian herbs and dunk sauce comes as a surprise in these quick appetizers, and it's totally addictive. You'll need 20 short (3 1/2 in.) bamboo skewers; cut bigger ones if you can't find this size.
Great seasonal, colorful, healthy appetizer. Big hit at a neighborhood holiday wine tasting party.
Read Morethese are really interesting and fun. i used a toothpick to put them together and there was a lively discussion about the ingredients. most folks couldn't figure out that they were persimmons. the basil flavor really dominated even though i only used half a leaf as they were so large. i couldn't pick up the cilantro flavor much so next time i'll put more than 1 leaf on each. really enjoyed this and great for a party.
