Dried Slovenian persimmon

It has always been valued for its nutritional and medicinal value and enjoyed its sweet taste. The meaning of its botanical name Diospyros - the food of the gods - also tells us about this. It is distinguished by its rich vitamin and mineral content, high content of dietary fiber and low content of proteins and fats.

In Brda, the microclimatic location for growing persimmons is very favorable. Peel a squash, grate it and dry it. Drying takes about two weeks, at a temperature below 40 degrees Celsius. The fruits retain their exceptional juiciness and have a wonderful taste. During the drying process, the persimmons ripen to the end, the characteristic bitterness disappears, and the fruits are velvety covered with a white sprinkle of sugar.
