Preparation

  • Wash peel and pit persimmons. Cut into slices. Prepare 6 wide mouth pint jars for sterilizing by boiling them for 10 minutes in a water bath canner.

  • Add the hot sugar liquid filling the jars to 1/2" headspace.  Remove the air bubbles with the rubber or plastic spatula and refill to the proper headspace if necessary.

Processing

  • Wipe the rims and place the hot lid/rings on the jars. Process in a water bath canner for 20 minutes at a full rolling boil.
