There are about 3 Dae-bong-kam trees not far away from my house. I took this when I was on my way to the market....
Dae-bong-kam, it is in "heart-shape" instead of the round shape.
" Persimmon", we call it "감/Kam" in Korean; "柿子/shizi" in Chinese; also known as Japanese persimmon or Kaki. These fruits are sweet, slightly tangy fruits with a soft to occasionally fibrous texture.
This is the " 대봉감 /Dae-bong-kam" in Korean. In Japan, it is named as " Hachiya" and in Chinese as "大峰柿子“。
This fruit has a high tannin content which makes the immature fruit astringent and bitter. The tannin levels are reduced as the fruit matures. Persimmons like " Dae-bong-kam" must be completely ripened before consumption. When ripe, this fruit comprises thick pulpy jelly encased in a waxy thin skinned shell.

For my family, we like to place the Dae-bong-kam in the freezer , enjoy it as sorbet/冰沙。
柿子,韩文的发音是 “kam”,果肉非常的甜美。
照片中的柿子,其形状是呈 “心形”,而非一般圆形的柿子。这柿子必须在完全成熟后,或果肉完成变得软绵绵的时候才可食用,否则,其果肉会含有胶汁,和苦涩,难以嚥下。
我们家喜欢把成熟后的大峰柿子放入冰冻箱,当冰沙/sorbet来吃。。。
