Persimmons fruit and Kale green leaves simmered together in a vegetable stock with a hint of garlic and creamed with avocado. Mmm!

The delicious aroma still lingers around my nose. I think I want to make another batch of Persimmons Kale Avocado Soup so that I can indulge in this warm aromatic soup in this cold rainy Seattle winter. 🙂

How to make Persimmons Kale Avocado Soup

  • Firstly, I chopped persimmons and kept it aside.
  • Secondly, I heated oil in a pan and sauteed garlic and onions.
  • Then, I sauteed persimmons until it was soft and tossed in kale.
  • Next, I poured in vegetable stock along with the seasonings.
  • Afterwards, I blended it smooth and added mashed avocados just before serving.

Since the transition of fall to winters has started I wanted to take advantage of seasonal produce of both the seasons. I love the flavor and pudding texture of Persimmons and I wanted to experiment this wonderful rare fruit in a cooked form. At the same time I wanted to fill myself with healthy green soup because as said we should eat 5 servings of veggies and soup is the best option in winters.

YAY! Another healthy and savory soup recipe added to my list of healthy diet.

FAQs

  • Pair it with salty crackers
  • This soup tastes best when served immediately.
  • Do not cook avocado. Simply mash and mix. It will make this soup creamy and flavorful.
  • If you plan to store the leftovers then microwave it enough to only bring it in room temperature so that avocado does not lose its flavor.

    This is embarrassing to admit, but I had never in my life eaten a persimmon until this year. What a shame because they are DELICIOUS! I’m obsessed. 🙂 So, when I saw this recipe, I knew I had to try it. So glad I did because it’s fantastic. The combination of flavors works so incredibly well. I will be making this over and over again!

    Just made this soup tonight and it turned out great! Used organic beef broth instead of veggie stock. Also, if I were to make it again, I may try pureeing the sauteed ingredients (onion, garlic, persimmon, kale) directly instead of adding the broth, waiting for it to cool, etc. Just a way to cut down on the time I guess!
    Thanks for the interesting recipe idea!
