In the golden October of autumn, it's the season when persimmons ripen. The fields are filled with a sea of red, as this is the time for picking persimmons.
Families in the village who originally planted persimmon trees have all enjoyed a bountiful harvest this year. When Tian Xin led everyone to start making persimmon cakes, these families couldn't stop smiling.
Processing persimmons into cakes is physically demanding work. Once the persimmons are picked, they must be processed immediately and cannot be left too long. If left too long, they become soft, and soft persimmons can't be made into cakes.
So, as soon as the persimmons were picked, she led a group of women on the wheat field, teaching them how to make persimmon cakes.
"Look, everyone! First, you have to fold the stem of the persimmon into a 'T' shape," Tian Xin demonstrated with a persimmon.
