Chow Mein (similar to Panda Express)

I just tried this new chow mein (like Panda Express -- so really lo mein?) tonight.  I really liked it, though I would have doubled the vegetables for my tastes (the kids liked it as it was).  It used the bean sprouts, celery, cabbage, and green onions.  I also ate some persimmon on top.  And steamed snow peas to eat on the side.  The recipe is here.

Persimmons

The tomato-shaped orange fruits in your bags today are Fuyu Persimmons.  They can be eaten hard as they are now, or allowed to ripen/soften on your counter, in which case they'll become more sweet.

I've never had them before - I tried one today and I thought it tasted a little bit like an apple-banana-pear-nectarine mix, only very mild.  I think I'd like to see how they taste after ripening a bit.      Sounds like they would be good for jam or smoothies.  I diced some and ate it atop my Chow Mein tonight, and I liked that better than eating it alone. Let me know what you try!
