Ingredients:
- 3 - Fuyu Persimmons
- 1 - Juice of 1 lemon
- - Fine Sea Salt
- 1 1/2 tablespoons - Olive Oil
- 4 cups - Baby Arugula
- - Parmesan Shavings
- - Freshly Ground Black Pepper
Directions:
1. Trim persimmon tops and ends. If you like, use a vegetable peeler to remove skin. Halve lengthwise, then, with cut side down, thinly slice persimmons crosswise, about 1/6-inch thick.
2. Place fruit in a bowl and toss with juice of 1 lemon, a pinch salt and olive oil. Let sit until fruit releases juices and salt dissolves, about 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning, adding extra salt or lemon juice to taste.
3. Divide greens among four salad plates. Scatter a generous handful of fruit over each plate of greens and spoon some of the seasoned juices left in the bowl over top. Garnish with Parmesan. Finish with a drizzle of oil and freshly ground black pepper. Serve immediately.
