Nobody mentioned how HARD it would be to get seeds out of persimmons. I used the small fruit from a neighbors tree. I made the mistake of glopping them into a bowl. Then had to spread them out tablespoon by tablespoon on my hand to de-seed. Second batch I cut individually in half and removed seeds. No way this glop would go thru colander, mine were not runny at all. Cheesecake, however was worth it. Crust delicious and held together (while chilled too) I held back about a cup of persimmons and mixed with caramel sauce, warmed in the microwave and drizzled on top, left off the sour cream. I also cooked it in a water bath. Great recipe for flavor.
