plenty of good olive oil in the turkey persimmon glaze would really help the dry-ass meat as well.

yeah, persimmon dressings are great, thanks for reminding me Karena.

Glaze for turkey sounds ideal, actually. You'd have to be careful of burning it though, as the sugars will blacken rather quickly. Maybe at the very end.

Interesting. I never thought that it would taste great together. This is a new combination.

Today I made a salad dressing with fuyu goop. I found two forgotten fuyus in the back of the fridge and they were totally squishy like ripe hachiyas. I pushed them through a sieve and blended the goop with a splash of unseasoned rice wine vinegar and a smidge of toasted sesame oil, then dressed a giant bowl of mizuna, tatsoi, watercress and topped it off with a handful of goji berries and walnuts. The sweetness of the dressing was great with the slightly bitter greens.

Fantastic. I just found some persimmons but they're quite expensive right now. Never tried that combination yet. Looks really delicious and something new for my taste.

Good to know, and I'm glad to be wrong!

You're wrong. The acocado was definitely there. It may have helped that I pureed the avo into the otherwise-hot soup at the last minute. If anything, I think that the persimmons actually accentuated the avocado flavor.

Wow — could you taste the avocado?I can easily see the other ingredients but would fear losing the precious avo and not gaining much for the soup. Tell me I'm wrong! Sounds delightful in any case.
