Persimmon Vanilla Jam

Persimmons are one of the top five reasons we love winter. Whether it’s the crisp Fuyus or custardy Hachiyas filling farmers markets come December, there’s just something magical about their flavor—and we love capturing that magic in a jar.

This jam starts with ripe Fuyu persimmons from local growers, cooked down until soft and spoonable. We add pure cane sugar, a generous helping of real vanilla bean, and just a touch of citrus pectin to bring it all together. The result? A silky, aromatic jam that tastes like the essence of winter fruit.

Spread it on warm toast, swirl it into yogurt, or pair it with soft cheeses for a cozy, elegant twist.
