Japanese Massaged Dried Persimmon
Ark of Taste Products > Japanese Massaged Dried Persimmon
Hoshi gaki are persimmons that are peeled and dried whole over a period of several weeks through a combination of hanging and gentle hand-massaging, until the sugars contained in the fruit form a delicate surface dusting that looks like frost. Unlike sliced dried fruit, which tends to be brittle and leathery, hoshi gaki are succulent, tender and moist, with a concentrated persimmon flavor. The hoshi gaki method is traditional to Japan, and came to America with Japanese American farmers. Because they are so labor-intensive, hoshi gaki all but disappeared from commercial production.

Otow Orchard
(Granite Bay, CA)
|

Otow Orchard is a small family-operated farm in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountains east of Sacramento, surrounded by development. It was started by Chris Kuratomi's grandparents, Kichitaro and Momi Kawano around 1910, before Asian immigrants were legally allowed to own land in California. By forming a land company the Kawano's were able to purchase, clear and begin the original farm which still operates in the same location.
