  1. Dear Experts
    Have found an old recipe:
    two questions
    #1 Do I need to remove all the bits of persimmon that do not blend into the
    dough?
    I did peel them and made sure there were no seeds.
    The persimmons were the consistency of 'warm Jell-O in a sack' - i.e. very
    soft.

    The other question has to do with baking in general.
    #2 Most recipes call for sifting the flour. Is it necessary/beneficial to
    invest in a sifter in this day and age?

    Thanks
    GS

    Delia Smith says it helps put air into the floeru and that is is
    supposed to be a good thing. i rarely bake, so I have no experience data
    on sifting vs not sifting.
