- Sour cream 20% fat 100 g
- Sugar 4 tbsp
- Honey to taste
For serving
- Berries optional
Directions
Step 1
Wash the persimmon. Take the honey out of the refrigerator 30 minutes ahead so it reaches room temperature. Prepare a sieve, a heavy-bottomed skillet, and individual serving cups or bowls.
Step 2
Warm the honey in the microwave until it becomes liquid. Do this in short 10-second pulses, stirring in between. Do not bring the honey to a boil, just melt it, otherwise it will lose its beneficial properties. Let it cool.
TipBe sure to take the honey out of the cold and let it reach room temperature before cooking to avoid a strong temperature contrast.
Step 3
Rub the cottage cheese through a sieve and mix with 2 tbsp of sugar and sour cream. Distribute the cottage cheese mixture into individual bowls or cups and refrigerate.
Step 4
Slice the persimmon into small wedges, removing the seeds.
Step 5
Pour the remaining sugar into a skillet and place over low heat. Wait until the sugar melts, then add the persimmon. Sauté, turning occasionally, then transfer to a plate and let cool.
Step 6
Place the caramelized fruits on top of the chilled cottage cheese mixture and drizzle with honey.
Step 7
When serving, garnish the persimmon with berries and mint.
