This was an interesting combination of bitter and sweet, of soft and crunchy, and we all enjoyed it.

I used walnuts as well, and Sharon fruit, which I understand to be basically the same as Fuyu persimmons. If I have endive and / or persimmons again, I will make this again.

I prepared this salad because I had received fresh persimmons from a person with a persimmon tree. This salad features an unusual combination of ingredients. The endive, with its slight bitterness and good crunch, paired nicely with the sweet fuyu persimmon. I couldn't find any pecans, so I had to use walnuts, but they, too, were nice.

I served this salad to four people, two of us loved it, one doesn't care for nuts, and one thought the dressing needed more punch. If I could have given it 4 1/2 stars, I would have.

What I liked best was the unusual ingredients, and the play of sweet and slightly bitter flavors. I will definitely make this again when I have fuyu persimmons.
