PRODUCT INFO
Round and squat with a green yellow skin that is often speckled with brown spots. Extremely crispy and juicy these pears are prized not only for their texture but for their subtly sweet flavor as well. Asian pears are also non-climacteric, meaning they mostly won't continue to ripen after picking.
USES
The firm and crisp texture of Asian pears make them a popular addition to both fruit and green salads. Slice into sticks and serve with both sweet and savory dipping sauces. Try using with or as a substitute for apples in a pie or cake. Pair with aged gouda or your favorite cheese with bread or crackers for a quick and easy appetizer. Asian Pears are ripe at purchase, refrigerate to store.
