How to prepare pears

The sweet harvest of pears directly encourages its use, especially in sweet dishes. Pear muffins, strudel with pear filling or even pear cake are among the traditional methods of preparation. Pears have a less pronounced taste than apples, but the same combination of spices - vanilla, cinnamon, cloves or perhaps raisins soaked in rum - goes well with them.

However, lesser-known sweet pear recipes are also worth trying - they are popularly combined with alcohol abroad and you don't even have to worry about flambéing them.

If you are one of the lovers of sweet-salty combinations, you can also use pears when preparing meat. Lightly roasted pears in butter are excellent as a base for roast meats - from goose to pork belly. Thanks to their high sugar content, they release a pleasant caramel aroma during baking.

Pears are also suitable for canning - you can use them to make tasty jams, compote, and sweet pear syrup is also worth a try.

Want to get the best of sweet pears for your health? Eat them cold! A fresh, crunchy pear is excellent for various fruit and vegetable salads, and if you don't have time to process the harvest and the pears are getting soft before your eyes, make a delicious smoothie full of vitamins from them.
