1 cup persimmon pulp |
2 teaspoons baking soda |

1 1/2 teaspoons salt |
2/3 cup water |
3 cups all-purpose flour |

Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease three 6x3 inch loaf pans.
2. In a small bowl, stir together the persimmon pulp and baking soda. Let stand 5 minutes to thicken the pulp.
