i can say, as a child of persimmon eating indiana people, that persimmon pudding is good but really is for the American Persimmon which needs to be VERY ripe. but as someone who grew up in the Pacific rim: Asian persimmons are best soft as a tomato and sliced.

if your partner wants to do a deep dive into persimmons, I highly recommend the amazing book "Tree Crops A Permanent Agriculture" which still could change the world.
