Chutney Preparation
  1. Start by peeling and dicing the ripe persimmons, chopping the onion, mincing the garlic, and grating the fresh ginger.
  2. In a medium saucepan, heat a splash of oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until translucent—about 5 minutes.
  3. Gently stir in the diced persimmons, freshly grated ginger, brown sugar, cider vinegar, and the cinnamon stick. Mix everything well.
  4. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, then reduce to low and let it simmer uncovered for 30 minutes.
  5. Taste your chutney and adjust the salt as needed. Allow it to cool before transferring to clean jars.
