Pears – Bosc

1 kg is approximately 6 pears.

Selection: Bosc pears are easily recognizable by their long, tapering neck and russeted skin, which is a warm cinnamon brown color.

Preparation: Due to their firm texture, Bosc pears are ideal for baking, broiling, and poaching. They retain their shape and texture well during cooking, making them perfect for recipes that require the fruit to hold its form.

Good for you: Like most pears, Bosc pears are a good source of dietary fiber and vitamin C. They are also low in calories, making them a healthy addition to your diet.

And taste so good: They have a firm, dense flesh that is crisp and woodsy with a honey sweetness. Early in their ripeness cycle, they are juicy and crunchy, becoming sweeter and softer as they fully ripen.

Storage: Pears have an outstanding storage potential if kept in the fridge.
