Fuyu Persimmon Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Make the vinaigrette: put diced shallot in a small bowl with a pinch of salt. Add lemon juice and sherry vinegar and leave to macerate for about 5 minutes. Stir in olive oil. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
• With a sharp paring knife, remove and discard the leafy calyx at the top of each persimmon. Peel persimmons and cut in half vertically. Lay persimmons flat side down and cut into 1/2-inch wedges.
• Put persimmon wedges and celery slices in a low, wide salad bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Whisk vinaigrette, then pour over persimmon and celery and toss to coat well. Add radicchio and toss lightly.
• With a vegetable peeler, shave about 1 ounce of Parmesan in thin strips over salad.

Steps:

• Place persimmon rounds on a platter. Cut burrata ball into 5 or 6 pieces, ensuring that each piece has some of the firm outer shell (mozzarella) as well as some of the creamy inside (stracciatella and cream). Distribute burrata pieces around persimmon rounds. Drizzle with balsamic glaze and olive oil. Scatter basil leaves on top and sprinkle with pepper.
