PERSIMMON PUDDING WITH HARD SAUCE
An old-fashioned steamed pudding may not be your traditional Thanksgiving Day dessert, but it is a tradition on our Thanksgiving table. You will need a pudding mold and persimmons, a beautiful orange fruit that looks like an apple. The persimmons will need to be quite soft, almost overripe to the touch. Persimmons taste like a cross between a peach and an apricot, but they are a little tart. The pudding should be served slightly warm, which makes the hard sauce - one of the best tastes - melt.

Steps:
- To make the pudding, in a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar with an electric mixer at medium speed. Add the flour, 1/2 cup at a time, alternating with the persimmon pulp, brandy, eggs, and baking soda mixture. Stir in the vanilla, spices, walnuts, and raisins and mix on low until the butter comes together, about 5 minutes.
- Butter the top and bottom of a 2-quart pudding mold with a lid. Spoon in the mixture. Put the buttered lid on tightly and lock into place. Put the mold in a bigger pot filled with water to come halfway up the side of the mold; cover the pot. It is necessary to have a well-buttered mold and enough water for ample steam for this pudding to come out right. Bring the water to a simmer and let simmer over medium-low heat for about 2 hours. Make sure the water doesn't evaporate; add more hot water if it does. The pudding should be checked with a cake tester. When the tester comes out clean, the pudding is done. Take the mold out of the water and unmold when cool, 1 to 2 hours.
- While the pudding is steaming, prepare the hard sauce. Cream the butter and sugar together with an electric mixer. Beat in the brandy. Chille at least 1 hour. Serve with the warm pudding.
OLD-FASHIONED PERSIMMON PUDDING
This is an old-fashioned persimmon pudding recipe from which people who say they don't like persimmon pudding DO like this one. It is more moist and more like the consistency of pumpkin pie filling. It's wonderful topped with whipped cream or milk poured over it.

NONNIE'S PERSIMMON PUDDING
My husband's grandmother, Nonnie, used to make her really unique version of Persimmon Pudding every Thanksgiving. When she wasn't able to make it anymore, my husband asked if I would take over. I did, and am now required to bring this to every fall family gathering! You can serve this warm or let it cool - my family loves it both ways.

PERSIMMON PUDDING

PERSIMMON PUDDING
Wild persimmons start to blush along the country roads of Indiana in late September, stealing the colors of sunset and weighing down their trees like Christmas balls. They are native to the landscape, unlike the Chinese and Japanese varieties cultivated in California and found in grocery stores. Foraging carries on through November, when the fruit claims a place at the Hoosier Thanksgiving table in the form of a dark gold pudding, distant kin to the sweet persimmon bread offered to early colonials by the Cherokee. This recipe comes from Alverta S. Hart of Mitchell, Ind. This fall, the town hosted its annual Persimmon Festival and as always, the most suspenseful event was the persimmon pudding contest. Ms. Hart submitted her first pudding in 1962 as an 18-year-old bride, and re-entered every year for nearly four decades until she became a judge, then chairwoman of the event, winning on and off and collecting every color of ribbon along the way.

PERSIMMON PUDDING WITH SWEET WHITE SAUCE
My Memaw had a persimmon tree and always had pulp packed away in the freezer for this rich and delicious treat; summer, winter, spring or fall. The original recipe was handed down from her mother and each daughter took the recipe and tweaked it a little to accommodate the individual tastes of their families. One daughter added cinnamon, one daughter added nutmeg. This is the recipe I grew-up with and I believe it is the original. Memaw passed away several years ago, but I can still close my eyes and picture the whole family feasting on her persimmon pudding in the tight cozy kitchen of her small farmhouse.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325°F for glass pans, or 350°F for metal pans.
- Grease and flour two 9"x13" pans.
- Cream the sugar and butter together.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, until thoroughly incorporated.
- Add the persimmon pulp and the buttermilk to the mixture.
- Dissolve the baking soda in a little bit of warm water, let fizz, and then add to the mixture.
- Mix the baking powder with one (1) cup of flour and add to mixture.
- Add the second cup of flour a little bit at a time, but do not overbeat as this will make the pudding tough.
- Divide the batter into two pans (this will produce a rather thin layer of pudding when baked).
- Bake for 45 to 60 minutes checking for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center after 45 minutes.
- Do NOT overbake!
- Better the pudding be a little on the moist side than dry.
- For the sauce, place the first 4 ingredients in saucepan, bring to boil, boil 5 minutes, then remove from heat and add the vanilla.
- Once the pudding is done and has cooled a little, cut it into 3 squares and layer it in a serving dish with the warm sauce between the layers and ending with sauce spooned over the top.
