    I grow up using one of those wooden pestles and metal cone stainer.

    Oh, I used to take persimmon pudding in to work, and there was this one chick that would just about have traded herself to me to have a piece. Shame I was married. That stuff is good. You have seeds? I'd like to grow some.

    I'd love pudding seeds, do they come in milk chocolate too?

    Love me some persimmon puddin'!! Used to have a big old chest freezer with no defrost cycle that would keep persimmons/pulp for decades and it'd be as good as fresh picked when thawed out. All I remember about pulping them as a kid is a lot of work and a strainer.

    OP, if you happen to be around Indy and have some extra persimmon seeds, I'd be quite happy to take some off your hands!

    I dunno about chocolate, I think they grow that the next continent down from here. I just know if I wasn't such a moral guy it could have been pretty awesome to be molested for some persimmon pudding. She was tall, and lean, and... whoo. I picked up a colander like that at an estate sale a few years back. Yeah, colanders. Let's talk about stuff like that. And persimmon seeds. Yeah, that stuff. I'll stop sweating soon.

    Mom uses something like that. When you grow up as close to Mitchell as I did you know persimmon pudding is some of the best stuff on Earth.
    Finding a good tree is the hard part. The deer will eat them like crazy if it is a good tree. Our cows liked them too.

    We have tree in our yard and our dog eats them as fast as they fall.
