PERSIMMON COBBLER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Butter a 2-qt. rectangular baking dish; set aside. For crumble topping: In a large bowl whisk together flour, cornmeal, sugar, ground ginger, and salt. Using your fingers or a pastry blender, work butter into flour mixture past the crumbly stage until mixture just begins to cling together. (If making ahead, store in an airtight container chilled up to 1 week or frozen 1 month.)
• For fruit base: In a large bowl toss together pears, persimmons, crystallized ginger, and lemon juice. In a small bowl combine sugar, flour, salt, nutmeg, and pepper. Sprinkle sugar mixture over fruit mixture; toss to combine. Transfer to prepared baking dish. Top with crumble topping, breaking up large pieces to cover surface.
• Cover with parchment paper, then foil. Transfer baking dish to a baking sheet lined with foil. Bake 20 minutes. Carefully remove foil and parchment. Bake 1 hour more or until top is golden and filling is bubbly. Cool 30 minutes before serving.
• For brandied custard sauce: In a medium saucepan simmer milk and vanilla bean to just below boiling. Remove from heat; let stand, covered, 10 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large heatproof bowl whisk together egg yolks and sugar. Remove vanilla bean from milk. Slowly pour milk into yolk mixture, whisking constantly. Return to saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until custard coats the back of a spoon (do not boil). Remove from heat; stir in heavy cream. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve; stir in brandy, vanilla, and salt. Cool slightly. (May be chilled up to 24 hours.) Serve over cobbler.
