INSTRUCTIONS
*available at specialty produce markets
In a kettle of boiling salted water cook beans until just tender, 2 to 4
minutes, and drain. Plunge beans into a bowl of ice and cold water to stop
cooking and drain. Beans may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and
chilled, covered.
In a large heavy skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but
not smoking and saute persimmons until lightly browned and softened, about
4 minutes. Add beans and 1/4 cup chives and saute, stirring gently, until
hot.
Transfer mixture to a platter and sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup chives on top.
Serves 8.
