"bio": "Emily Luchetti has helped to define what great pastry in America means. After attending culinary school and working within New York restaurants and Jeremiah Tower’s legendary Stars in San Francisco, Emily switched to the sweet side of the kitchen and didn’t look back. She was the pastry chef at Stars for eight years and also co-owned the retail bakery \u003cem>StarBake\u003c/em>.\r\n\r\nEmily was then Executive Pastry Chef at San Francisco’s \u003cem>Farallon\u003c/em> from 1997-2014 and Waterbar from 2008-2014. In 2014, she joined the dynamic and creative team at Big Night Restaurant Group (\u003cem>The Cavalier, Marlowe, Park Tavern, Leo’s Oyster Bar\u003c/em>).\r\n\r\nEmily’s pastry style is focused – she creates simple, elegant desserts that are full of flavor. “My goal in creating desserts is to make them fun, straightforward and flavorful – desserts designed to please, delight and just make life rosier,” she said.\r\n\r\nEmily has authored many books on the subject of pastry. Among them are \u003cem>Stars Desserts\u003c/em> (HarperCollins, 1991), \u003cem>Four Star Desserts\u003c/em> (HarperCollins, 1995), \u003cem>A Passion for Desserts\u003c/em>(Chronicle Books, 2003), \u003cem>A Passion for Ice Cream\u003c/em> (Chronicle Books, 2006) and \u003cem>The Fearless Baker\u003c/em> (Little, Brown and Company, 2011). Her first two books were re-released as\u003cem>Classic Stars Desserts\u003c/em> (Chronicle Books, 2007).\r\n\r\nEmily’s honors include the 1998 San Francisco \u003cem>Focus Magazine\u003c/em> Pastry Chef of the Year, the 2001 Women Chefs & Restaurateurs Golden Whisk Award, the 2003 \u003cem>Food Arts Magazine\u003c/em> Silver Spoon Award and the 2004 James Beard Foundation award for Outstanding Pastry Chef. In 2009 the \u003cem>San Francisco Chronicle\u003c/em> chose Emily as one of the 20 Visionary Chefs in the Bay Area, and she was inducted into the Culinary Pioneers of America. In 2012, she was inducted into the James Beard Foundation Who’s Who of Food & Beverage in America.\r\n\r\nEmily is passionate about teaching and mentoring chefs and restaurateurs, serving as a Dean at The International Culinary Center in New York. She is the founder of\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.emilyluchetti.com/dessertworthy\">dessertworthy\u003c/a>\u003c/strong> a movement to empower people to be more mindful of their sugar and fat indulgences.\r\n\r\nFrom 1994 to 1999, she served as Chairperson of Women Chefs & Restaurateurs. Emily has served on the James Beard Foundation Board of Trustees for the past 10 years, four years as the Chair of the James Beard Awards Committee and five years as the Chairperson for the Board of Trustees. She also serves as an Oxfam Sister of the Planet.",

The distillery has been producing and distributing quinoa whiskey since 2011.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other spirits and liquor companies have been using quinoa in their products; FAIR, a French distillery, launched quinoa vodka in 2012, while several craft breweries, like Altiplano and Aqotango, use quinoa in their beers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003c/strong>With a grain profile of 20 percent quinoa and 80 percent malted barley, Corsair's product is a spirit with a distinctly earthy and nutty flavor that may not immediately register on the palate as \"whiskey.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003c/strong>And until recently, the federal government didn't recognize it as whiskey either, due to its limited definition of \"grains.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003c/strong>At first, the Treasury Department's Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau, also known as the TTB, wanted Corsair to classify the product as a quinoa rum (despite the fact that it contained no fermented cane product). Then, they suggested it be labeled as a \"neutral spirit\" — a clear liquid distilled from a grain-based mash that holds a high content of ethanol — which didn't really describe the crafted and aged spirit in Corsair's barrels.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003c/strong>\"Supposedly [a representative from the TTB] called the USDA, [which] said 'Yes, these are in fact grains' and gave us the go-ahead,\" Bell said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003c/strong>Then, in early December, the TTB took a step to officially include quinoa as a whiskey grain. On Dec. 3, the TTB outlined a new definition for what crops count as grains as part of a 132-page list of updated recommendations for the labeling of wine, beer and spirits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003c/strong>Per the new TTB proposal, the list of whiskey grains now includes \"cereal grains and the seeds of the pseudocereals amaranth, buckwheat and quinoa.\" And this is a big deal for craft distillers like Bell.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Colin Blake says this proposed change could be really beneficial for creativity in the whiskey industry. Blake is the director of spirits education at Moonshine University, a distilling education program in Louisville, Ky.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think it's fantastic for the category that people can start making what can be classified as whiskey with these new grains,\" Blake said. He said he's already had people in his classes asking about distilling with alternative grains.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clay Smith, who used to be a distiller for Corsair and now works at Moonshine University, said he feels these questions are essential to developing the industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"[They ask] 'Have you made this? Have you done it with this?'\" Smith said. \"And maybe 70 to 80 percent of the time, we're like 'yeah, we've done it and here's why you shouldn't do it,' but those are always the most fun questions from [our distilling students].\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And according to Blake, distillers are going to have to keep asking those questions as members of the industry start experimenting more with those grains.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_132140\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/01/corsair_vert-d5997baf29b78a4c0fb02dd065ccfe976cad8b58-1-e1547495062696.jpg\" alt=\"When Corsair Distillery in Nashville, Tenn., wanted to start experimenting with alternative grains, there wasn't a playbook to follow.

The can’t-miss dish is the spicy, juicy, grilled pollo de Obispo ($18/$34 for a whole bird) — it has a wonderful smoky kiss. You can get it in a plate lunch that comes with two sides ($20), like the creamy maduros, macaroni salad (it has a high nostalgia factor), congrí (rice and beans), collards, and more.

The handcrafted simplicity of all the wood tables and chairs pairs with the reproduced folk mural above the bar from artist Bill Traylor (who was born into slavery) — Vogler partnered with SF’s Museum of the African Diaspora for ongoing art installations, which can help remind and educate guests about rum's history (and roots in slavery and colonialism). He also worked with Calle 24 on being mindful of the needs of the neighborhood (keeping prices affordable, all the staff speaks Spanish, and the menu is in Spanish) to help preserve its character; both organizations will also receive some profits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

There are five kinds of broth (beef paitan or spicy, shio, vegan, or oxtail and tomato) and bowls that range from $12–$15, and while they call it ramen, I think ramen purists will be happier if they think of it as a tasty bowl of noodles, but not a pinnacle of ramen broth technique and noodle sourcing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bone marrow supplement is $6, which gets hit with a swath of black truffle paste and is torched before being added on top of your bowl (you scoop it into your bowl for a big flavor boost, but be careful to not burn your fingers on the bone). Oxtail or beef tenderloin are other supplements, for $5 each. The bowls come with meaty oyster mushrooms, which are a great pairing with the beefy notes.

"title": "5 Alcohol-Free Alternatives For Your Dry January",
"headTitle": "Bay Area Bites | KQED Food",
"content": "\u003cp>Freshly motivated to accomplish New Year’s resolutions after the excess of the holidays, a lot of people choose to scale back drinking alcohol during January. A “dry January” looks different for each person, depending on what they’re trying to accomplish — maybe they keep the glass of wine with dinner but skip the bar outings on Friday night. Or maybe they limit themselves to one drink only at the company happy hour.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Regardless, skipping drinking can sometimes feel like it's costing you your social life. Whether you’re suffering FOMO seeing your friends at the newest wine bar or compromising your goal for a second beer at game night, finding ways to stick to your guns when everyone around you is drinking can be rough. But, it can be a positive to stick it out according to life coach and speaker \u003ca href=\"http://alliestarkwellness.com/\">Allie Stark.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Deciding to cut back or stop consuming alcohol after the excess of the holiday season is an active change in a behavior that will inherently influence your thoughts and your feelings,” says Stark. “This can have a large impact on your relationships, your motivation at work, your internal confidence, and so much more.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stark suggests communicating your goals clearly and openly with friends and family, then stick to the folk who understand why you’re choosing not to drink — at least for a little bit. “Actively choose to surround yourself with friends and family that respect your decision to not drink for the time being, as it will allow for an easier and more enjoyable experience while it is taking place,” says Stark.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Luckily, there is an endless combination of places to meet friends and enjoy one another in the Bay Area that don’t involve alcohol.

While customers can come in and pick up a favorite tea to take home, they’re also more than welcome to share a pot of house tea ($5) or a fine tea blend ($7) together in the upstairs seating area. The space is quiet, with sleek modern lines and a fountain in the center of the store with real live koi.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">For a full experience beyond simply having a cuppa, you can do a tea flight at the downstairs counter. Each flight is three types of tea of your choice ($27) and a staff member will guide you through each, offering samples of different steeps, talking through the history of the tea, and answering your questions. Tea varieties include white, green (Chinese and Japanese), oolong (Chinese and Taiwanese), red, and pu-erh, the last of which comes in a tightly compacted disc and requires a knife to break off for steeping, which puts a little excitement into an otherwise soothing experience. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The specially designed counter features space for small groups to experience a tea flight together and one flight is absolutely shareable with two people.

Snow at Creme Brewlee is $8 and includes your choice of snow flavor, syrup, and two toppings (with additional toppings for fifty cents apiece). It’s not overwhelmingly sweet despite being made entirely of frozen sugar, and the soft crunch on each bite is exactly like eating snow when you were a kid. Except, of course, this snow is \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">meant \u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">to be eaten.

However, each day of the week brings its own discounts or specials, like $1.50 games on Monday and Tuesday nights or a killer 2 games-for-1 deal for groups of Cal-Berkeley students.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Little J’s Cafe attaches directly to Albany Bowl and offers American diner favorites like burgers and tater tots.

The additional screens were added and redesigned in the 80’s, pulling inspiration from the theatre’s decade of origin — one is “Egyptian,” the other “Moorish.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">So far as snacks go, Grand Lake offers standard fare like popcorn, soda, and favorite movie sweets all at the expected movie prices. There don’t seem to be designs to add in pizza or beer like at other independent movie theatres in the bay — and that’s okay. In pursuit of supporting a local institution, however, the few extra dollars for a snack are worth it, meaning your potential resolution to skip alcohol and do more in your neighborhood will hit the mark.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Teance Fine Teas\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/5ju5xf5Cnq32\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">1780 Fourth St \u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Berkeley, CA 94710\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_131977\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/01/IMG_3401-e1547226032835.jpg\" alt=\"Experience new teas from around the world with a tea flight at Teance Fine Teas.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-131977\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Experience new teas from around the world with a tea flight at Teance Fine Teas. \u003ccite>(Melanie Burke)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Grabbing a coffee together is always a popular alternative to going for a drink, but not everyone enjoys pour-overs or lattes. For the discerning tea drinker, \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.teance.com/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Teance Fine Teas\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> offers an inviting and tranquil place to enjoy a seemingly endless variety of loose leaf teas. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Pronounced “tee-ahnce,” (think “ambiance” and “tea” together) the tea shop has been in Berkeley for more than a decade, expanding into its current space on the popular fourth street. While customers can come in and pick up a favorite tea to take home, they’re also more than welcome to share a pot of house tea ($5) or a fine tea blend ($7) together in the upstairs seating area. The space is quiet, with sleek modern lines and a fountain in the center of the store with real live koi.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">For a full experience beyond simply having a cuppa, you can do a tea flight at the downstairs counter. Each flight is three types of tea of your choice ($27) and a staff member will guide you through each, offering samples of different steeps, talking through the history of the tea, and answering your questions. Tea varieties include white, green (Chinese and Japanese), oolong (Chinese and Taiwanese), red, and pu-erh, the last of which comes in a tightly compacted disc and requires a knife to break off for steeping, which puts a little excitement into an otherwise soothing experience. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The specially designed counter features space for small groups to experience a tea flight together and one flight is absolutely shareable with two people. For groups of four or more, however, you should call ahead to book an appointment as space is limited.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Creme Brewlee Bistro\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/y4giUqqUsM32\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">2948 S Norfolk St\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">San Mateo, CA 94403\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_131978\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/01/IMG_3159-e1547225989536.jpg\" alt=\"Friends with a meg-sweet tooth will love meeting up at Creme Brewlee for a shaved snow, pictured here.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-131978\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Friends with a meg-sweet tooth will love meeting up at Creme Brewlee for a shaved snow, pictured here. \u003ccite>(Melanie Burke)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sometimes the best surprises are in unassuming places. \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.yelp.com/biz/creme-brewlee-bistro-san-mateo\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Creme Brewlee\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> is one such adventure, a combination bistro and dessert spot in the Marina Plaza Shopping Center in San Mateo. The menu includes a diverse array of items that range halfway across the globe and back: coffee, lattes, gelato, hot pot, shaved snow, and of course, the titular creme brulee. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">One of the most unique sweets is the shaved snow, a fluffy, layered take on its crunchier cousin of the icy variety. Snow at Creme Brewlee is $8 and includes your choice of snow flavor, syrup, and two toppings (with additional toppings for fifty cents apiece). It’s not overwhelmingly sweet despite being made entirely of frozen sugar, and the soft crunch on each bite is exactly like eating snow when you were a kid. Except, of course, this snow is \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">meant \u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">to be eaten. Bring a friend or a loved one for this snow pile, however, as your $8 buys you a literal mound of dessert.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Creme Brewlee doesn’t do much for your resolution to eat healthier, but you’ll be exploring a new neighborhood, a new dessert style, and most importantly, skipping sugary cocktails in favor of something super “cool.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Albany Bowl\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://goo.gl/maps/724xFPMGttS2\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">540 San Pablo Ave\u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cbr>\n\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Albany, CA 94706\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_131979\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/01/IMG_3151-e1547225952655.jpg\" alt=\"Albany Bowl is a great spot to share french fries and a few games with friends.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" class=\"size-full wp-image-131979\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Albany Bowl is a great spot to share french fries and a few games with friends. \u003ccite>(Melanie Burke)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Finally, what better way to enjoy a little sober fun with friends than bowling?

Regular rates run $6 per game per person, with a $4.50 flat shoe rental if you don’t already have your own. However, each day of the week brings its own discounts or specials, like $1.50 games on Monday and Tuesday nights or a killer 2 games-for-1 deal for groups of Cal-Berkeley students.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>Each autumn, as leaves fall to the ground, persimmon trees emerge from the graying landscape, their orange and red fruits gleaming like gaudy Christmas ornaments. Beloved in eastern Asia — especially Japan — persimmons get little respect in the United States, where many tree owners don't bother harvesting their crop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many Americans have never tasted a persimmon. But Brock Dolman is an impassioned fan. Every fall he goes foraging for them, and the bounty is almost limitless in rural Sonoma County, Calif., where he lives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You can drive or ride your bike around the county, and you see these enormous trees all over with just thousands and thousands of persimmons,\" says \u003ca href=\"https://oaec.org/about-us/staff/brock-dolman/\">Dolman\u003c/a>, the co-founder of a permaculture center and demonstration farm in the town of Occidental.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The rise of the persimmon\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are lots of ways to eat and prepare this fruit. Many varieties, including the fuyu and suruga, are crunchy and can be eaten right off the tree like apples. Others, including the hachiya, saijo and chocolate, are considered astringent varieties. Rich in tannins, they are unpalatable until allowed to ripen to a jelly-soft texture, at which point they can be eaten out of hand or used in baking.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several years ago, Dolman learned of a new way to prepare persimmons — a Japanese style called \u003cem>hoshigaki\u003c/em>. A revered delicacy in its homeland, hoshigaki is now a rapidly trending fashion — thanks in large part to social media \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/hoshigaki/?hl=en\">photo galleries\u003c/a> and persimmons' expanding appearance on restaurant menus — in California, the East Coast and other regions with persimmon-friendly climates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Japanese, hoshigaki means simply \"dried persimmon,\" yet describes a product of such labor that it has been called the Kobe beef of fruits. To make hoshigaki, producers use twine to suspend peeled persimmons — always of astringent varieties — from bamboo racks, often outdoors in the sun, other times indoors near a fan or over a warm stove. The process can take between one and two months, and every few days caretakers give regular massages to the softening persimmons, which shrivel, turn dark brown and crust over with natural sugar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dolman says he learned the craft both from speaking to those with firsthand experience and by watching YouTube tutorials. He has gotten the hang of the technique and recently massaged his fourth hoshigaki crop — harvested from a tree in a nearby park — toward completion. He has just a handful left of his 2017 vintage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I share them only with select friends who will really appreciate them,\" he says, adding that he often serves them with aged sheep or goat cheese.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://sonokosakai.com/our-story/\">Sonoko Sakai\u003c/a>, a Los Angeles-based food author, spent years of her childhood in Japan, and is today one of California's hoshigaki gurus. Sakai's family was friendly with a major commercial hoshigaki producer in the Japanese city of Ogaki.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They would send us a box each year as a gift, and there were seven of us and just eight hoshigaki in the box, so they were very special,\" Sakai says. The family served the fruits with tea or, sometimes, sliced them thinly and applied them as a garnish over \u003cem>kakinamasu — \u003c/em>a daikon and persimmon pickle dish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Drawing in millennials\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She only learned to dry her own persimmons about eight years ago, but she has eaten and appreciated them all her life. Today, she teaches hoshigaki classes. People of all ethnicities and backgrounds attend the workshops, she says, but one thing many have in common is that they are all relatively young.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Lots of millennials,\" says Sakai, who is 63. \"I think it's so interesting that these younger people are realizing that it's rewarding to slow down, use their hands, be patient and learn these artisanal practices from other countries.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dangling, massaging and drying persimmons could be seen as the antithesis to what so much of Western culture now demands and expects — instantaneous gratification, ordered digitally with the push of a button.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Hoshigaki is the epitome of slow food,\" Dolman says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_132051\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 568px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-132051\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/01/persimmon-702117cf9e31a66cb05602cb14cce875e1e30a83.jpg\" alt=\"There are lots of ways to eat and prepare persimmons, but many Americans aren't sure what to do with the fruit.\" width=\"568\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/01/persimmon-702117cf9e31a66cb05602cb14cce875e1e30a83.jpg 568w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/01/persimmon-702117cf9e31a66cb05602cb14cce875e1e30a83-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/01/persimmon-702117cf9e31a66cb05602cb14cce875e1e30a83-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/01/persimmon-702117cf9e31a66cb05602cb14cce875e1e30a83-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/01/persimmon-702117cf9e31a66cb05602cb14cce875e1e30a83-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 568px) 100vw, 568px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">There are lots of ways to eat and prepare persimmons, but many Americans aren't sure what to do with the fruit. \u003ccite>(Alastair Bland/for NPR)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The tradition came to the United States with Japanese immigrants in the 19\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> and 20\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> centuries, and it has persisted in a relatively confined cultural circle for decades.

Beloved in eastern Asia — especially Japan — persimmons get little respect in the United States, where many tree owners don't bother harvesting their crop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many Americans have never tasted a persimmon. But Brock Dolman is an impassioned fan. Every fall he goes foraging for them, and the bounty is almost limitless in rural Sonoma County, Calif., where he lives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You can drive or ride your bike around the county, and you see these enormous trees all over with just thousands and thousands of persimmons,\" says \u003ca href=\"https://oaec.org/about-us/staff/brock-dolman/\">Dolman\u003c/a>, the co-founder of a permaculture center and demonstration farm in the town of Occidental.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The rise of the persimmon\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are lots of ways to eat and prepare this fruit. Many varieties, including the fuyu and suruga, are crunchy and can be eaten right off the tree like apples. Others, including the hachiya, saijo and chocolate, are considered astringent varieties. Rich in tannins, they are unpalatable until allowed to ripen to a jelly-soft texture, at which point they can be eaten out of hand or used in baking.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several years ago, Dolman learned of a new way to prepare persimmons — a Japanese style called \u003cem>hoshigaki\u003c/em>. A revered delicacy in its homeland, hoshigaki is now a rapidly trending fashion — thanks in large part to social media \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/hoshigaki/?hl=en\">photo galleries\u003c/a> and persimmons' expanding appearance on restaurant menus — in California, the East Coast and other regions with persimmon-friendly climates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Japanese, hoshigaki means simply \"dried persimmon,\" yet describes a product of such labor that it has been called the Kobe beef of fruits. To make hoshigaki, producers use twine to suspend peeled persimmons — always of astringent varieties — from bamboo racks, often outdoors in the sun, other times indoors near a fan or over a warm stove. The process can take between one and two months, and every few days caretakers give regular massages to the softening persimmons, which shrivel, turn dark brown and crust over with natural sugar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dolman says he learned the craft both from speaking to those with firsthand experience and by watching YouTube tutorials. He has gotten the hang of the technique and recently massaged his fourth hoshigaki crop — harvested from a tree in a nearby park — toward completion. He has just a handful left of his 2017 vintage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I share them only with select friends who will really appreciate them,\" he says, adding that he often serves them with aged sheep or goat cheese.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://sonokosakai.com/our-story/\">Sonoko Sakai\u003c/a>, a Los Angeles-based food author, spent years of her childhood in Japan, and is today one of California's hoshigaki gurus. Sakai's family was friendly with a major commercial hoshigaki producer in the Japanese city of Ogaki.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They would send us a box each year as a gift, and there were seven of us and just eight hoshigaki in the box, so they were very special,\" Sakai says. The family served the fruits with tea or, sometimes, sliced them thinly and applied them as a garnish over \u003cem>kakinamasu — \u003c/em>a daikon and persimmon pickle dish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Drawing in millennials\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She only learned to dry her own persimmons about eight years ago, but she has eaten and appreciated them all her life. Today, she teaches hoshigaki classes. People of all ethnicities and backgrounds attend the workshops, she says, but one thing many have in common is that they are all relatively young.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Lots of millennials,\" says Sakai, who is 63. \"I think it's so interesting that these younger people are realizing that it's rewarding to slow down, use their hands, be patient and learn these artisanal practices from other countries.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dangling, massaging and drying persimmons could be seen as the antithesis to what so much of Western culture now demands and expects — instantaneous gratification, ordered digitally with the push of a button.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Hoshigaki is the epitome of slow food,\" Dolman says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_132051\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 568px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-132051\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/01/persimmon-702117cf9e31a66cb05602cb14cce875e1e30a83.jpg\" alt=\"There are lots of ways to eat and prepare persimmons, but many Americans aren't sure what to do with the fruit.\" width=\"568\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/01/persimmon-702117cf9e31a66cb05602cb14cce875e1e30a83.jpg 568w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/01/persimmon-702117cf9e31a66cb05602cb14cce875e1e30a83-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/01/persimmon-702117cf9e31a66cb05602cb14cce875e1e30a83-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/01/persimmon-702117cf9e31a66cb05602cb14cce875e1e30a83-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2019/01/persimmon-702117cf9e31a66cb05602cb14cce875e1e30a83-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 568px) 100vw, 568px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">There are lots of ways to eat and prepare persimmons, but many Americans aren't sure what to do with the fruit. \u003ccite>(Alastair Bland/for NPR)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The tradition came to the United States with Japanese immigrants in the 19\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> and 20\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> centuries, and it has persisted in a relatively confined cultural circle for decades.

Using the pulse button, pulse the mixture until the butter is the size of small peas, 5 to 10 short pulses. This will happen very quickly, do not overmix it.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Add 3 tablespoons of ice water, then pulse just until the dough is crumbly. Stop the machine and gently squeeze about ⅓ cup of dough in your hand. If it comes together without any dry pieces, you’ve added enough water. If it’s still floury, add another tablespoon of water, pulse a couple more times, and test it again.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Continue to mix, using longer pulses, until the dough forms small clumps. Do not process it to the point where it forms a ball. Press the dough into a flat disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into an approximately 13-inch circle. Transfer carefully to a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Fold the approximately 1-inch overhang of dough into the pan and press against the sides of the pan. You will have a single thickness of dough on the bottom of the pan, and a double thickness on the sides. Trim the top edge even with the pan.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Refrigerate or freeze the tart shell for at least one hour.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line the tart shell with parchment paper and fill with pie weights, rice or beans. Bake the tart shell until the edges begin to brown, about 20 minutes. Remove the parchment and weights and continue to bake until the bottom is lightly browned, about 10 minutes more. Set aside.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Scatter the blueberries in the baked tart shell.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar together until well blended. Whisk in the milk, cream, and lemon juice. Whisk in the melted butter, lemon zest, and flour until everything is evenly combined. Pour the filling over the blueberries.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Bake until the filling is set, 25-30 minutes.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Serve the tart warm or at room temperature (it's delicious with \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/bayareabites/131685/celebrity-chefs-recipes-emily-luchettis-pumpkin-upside-down-cake\">chantilly cream\u003c/a>).

Before you know it, you will be rolling out dough like a pro.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Wild Blueberry Lemon Tart\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>Makes one, 9-inch tart\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_131974\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/01/DSCF4625-e1546967517769.jpg\" alt=\"Wild blueberries and lemon make this tart a real treat.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" class=\"size-full wp-image-131974\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wild blueberries and lemon make this tart a real treat. \u003ccite>(Vic Chin)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Ingredients for the tart dough:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 ½ tablespoon granulated sugar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>¼ teaspoon kosher salt\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>6 ounces cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3-4 tablespoons ice water\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Ingredients for the filling:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>1 ¼ cups wild blueberries, fresh or frozen\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 large eggs\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>⅔ cup granulated sugar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>⅓ cup whole milk\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3 tablespoons heavy cream\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 teaspoons lemon juice\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Grated zest of 2 lemons\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 tablespoons unbleached all-purpose flour\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Instructions:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003col>\n\u003cli>In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and butter.

This will happen very quickly, do not overmix it.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Add 3 tablespoons of ice water, then pulse just until the dough is crumbly. Stop the machine and gently squeeze about ⅓ cup of dough in your hand. If it comes together without any dry pieces, you’ve added enough water.

Transfer carefully to a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Fold the approximately 1-inch overhang of dough into the pan and press against the sides of the pan. You will have a single thickness of dough on the bottom of the pan, and a double thickness on the sides.

Salads include a perfect Louie ($21), with Dungeness, prawns, creamy egg, and avocado. Everything pairs well with their lighter cocktails, like A Diving Bell, and the aromatic Officer and a Gentian.

Located in Union Square’s Hotel G, the airy dining room and bar have an easygoing style that feels more Los Angeles than San Francisco. It’s a California seafood–centric restaurant, and chef-partner Bill Montagne brought on the talented executive chef Melissa Perfit (Bar Crudo, Hard Water), who is skilled in doing creative and delicious things with seafood (and sourcing the good stuff).\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_131926\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-131926\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/01/ayala-charcuterie-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Seafood charcuterie at Ayala. \u003ccite>(tablehopper.com)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>You don’t want to miss the beautiful seafood “charcuterie” plate ($21), which includes four seafood presentations, like halibut with grapefruit and fennel, and black cod with kombu and chartreuse. The lightly dressed section includes the freshest littleneck clams on the half-shell in a bright green frothy sauce, with jicama, cucumber, black tobiko, and lobster oil ($11 for 3). Salads include a perfect Louie ($21), with Dungeness, prawns, creamy egg, and avocado. Everything pairs well with their lighter cocktails, like A Diving Bell, and the aromatic Officer and a Gentian. The wine selections from GM Essam Kardosh (Del Popolo) and wine director Nick Tilly are also full of food-friendly beauties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_131927\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-131927\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2019/01/ayala-cioppino-800x1201.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"1201\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cioppino verde and lobster butter toast. \u003ccite>(tablehopper.com)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Larger dishes include the decadent nori spaghettini ($29), with Dungeness, white miso, and topped with furikake and a pop of acidity from Buddha’s hand. It’s a treat to have cioppino ($37) prepared with such respect for the seafood within: here, it’s a cioppino verde, a tomatillo-poblano broth, filled with Dungeness, prawns, squid, and lobster butter toast on the side that you’ll dunk in the broth. It’s a touch on the spendy side, and quality seafood isn’t cheap, but let the bread fill you up. You also want the English muffin with herb-cultured butter ($6).
