Thanks for your question. Though many people only eat the inside flesh, the skin is edible. Hachiya persimmon skins are somewhat like tomato skins. The Fuyu persimmons can be eaten just like an apple or pear with the skin on. It's just a personal preference. Hi Nancy!

I'm sure you realize that persimmons grow wild here in the south and are usually free for the picking. They are most commonly used to make a pudding with canned milk, sugar, spices and baked in the oven. Do you have a good persimmon pudding recipe?
