Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 fresh rosemary sprig
  • 12 thin slices smoked ham
  • 2 Fuyu persimmons, each cut into 12 wedges
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • In a small nonreactive saucepan over medium heat, combine the vinegar and rosemary and simmer until the vinegar has reduced to 1/4 cup, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat, discard the rosemary sprig and let cool.
  • Cut each slice of ham in half. Wrap a piece around each persimmon wedge (use a toothpick to secure each ham slice, if desired). Arrange the wrapped persimmons on a serving plate, drizzle with the reduced balsamic vinegar, and season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately. Serves 6.
