Brush hogging I have found a few that were on broken branches etc. That had sort of ripened.

My persimmon tree drops branches every year that are loaded with fruit.  They soften up but I've never had the guts to taste one.  Looks like coon scat to me.

Enough about coon scat.

Over the long weekend, the wife and I made a forage trip to Fayetteville. Farmers market, Lowes, and Sams. One of the items we bought was the mushroom and truffle raviolis package.

Tonight I will cook some of these and then submerse them in a chicken stock, lemon, butter bath. As the veg, I am roasting curried cauliflower. Good stuff in the Ozarks.

      I want to agree with you RPS on the coon scat but cannot. Just like coon scat you can learn a lot about the crap that is spread by some people on this site .

Cook on people but don't deposit and stir crap,

Well this is nothing special but it does have gravy, and a salad with cukes and sugar peas to go with.  It has the grandson slobber of approval.

Persimmons get sweet after they've been frost bit.  Until then uh un.  First hard frost OK, but the second hard frost is more reliable.  You will have to race the creatures to get them

About dinner.  Leftovers.  Tuna free tuna casserole.  Egg noodles, leftover grilled steelhead (most of one medium side) pesto alfredo, four ounces of sliced button mushrooms, two large cloves of garlic pressed, maybe an ounce of decent EVOO and some time in the oven at 350 F.  And a bottle of KJ vintner reserve Chard.  Cardinals v. Pirates on the box.  I've had it worse.

What is tuna free tuna casserole?  I have begun leaving persimmon sprouts in clumps around my property.  Neigh or dozed all of the ones along the fence out.  In 20 years or so maybe I will have some nice persimmon groves to help draw in deer for my wife to shoot.  Wait that would mean I still have to clean her deer when I am 70, sure hope so.  Otherwise someone else will either be happy or really ticked off at the persimmons.

Tuna casserole with steelhead instead of tuna.

AHHH, sounds better than regular tuna casserole.  Tuna casserole was one of those things as a kid I was forced to eat, was nothing but noodles, canned tuna, and I think cream of mushroom soup.  All things I like, combine them and I am OUT.  Dad and I seemed to find a lot of evenings to go fishing on tuna casserole nights, supper often consisted of a Mr. GoodBar and a Bit-O-honey candy bars on those nights.

Some time, for fun, make it with left over seared Ahi tuna and a cheesy bechamel.. Game changer.
