Grilled persimmon salad with crispy prosciutto and pesto vinaigrette

Grill
Last week my boss brought two enormous crates of persimmons to work to share with everybody. Each time I walked by the kitchen I grabbed a handful, and soon ended up with more persimmons than I knew what to deal with! Recalling warm summer evenings and the beauty of grilled stone fruit, I decided to throw a persimmon on the grill just to see what happened. I daresay I now prefer grilled persimmons to raw. Paired with crispy, salty prosciutto and a punchy pesto vinaigrette, this salad is the perfect side dish to pair with a hearty stew or braise.
