Q I clipped the recipe for persimmon pudding as my grandmother used to make it for family gatherings and it was very close to hers. However, where would one purchase persimmons, either whole or just the pulp?

A: You can find frozen persimmon pulp online if you google it. Otherwise, you occasionally find persimmons in farmers markets around here in the fall. Persimmons usually are a backyard crop around here and rarely show up in stores.
