Today I'd like to try making persimmon yokan with the Zenji-maru persimmons I have at home.

Zenjimaru persimmons have many seeds, so the Kawasaki City website says to boil them to remove the seeds.

I don't know if I can really get the seeds...

Peel the persimmons, add enough water to cover them, and heat.

I got a lot of seeds!

The seeds automatically came out when it was boiling...

Add 3 tablespoons of sugar and 2 grams of agar and continue to simmer.

Put them in a mold wet with water and let them cool.

It turned out to be a hard yokan. You can add a little more water.
