About Pears, asian, raw

The Asian pear (Pyrus pyrifolia), also called the apple pear or nashi, is a round, golden-brown fruit that looks more like an apple than a Western pear and stays crisp and crunchy rather than turning soft. Beneath its often russeted skin lies white flesh that is exceptionally juicy, sweet, and refreshing, with a delicate floral aroma. Asian pears are low in calories and a good source of fiber, vitamin C, and potassium, with a very high water content.

Unlike European pears, they ripen on the tree and are ready to eat when bought, staying firm and snappy. They are best enjoyed fresh and chilled, sliced into salads and slaws for crunch, or grated into Korean marinades, where their natural enzymes help tenderize meat. Choose fragrant, unblemished fruit, handle them gently since they bruise easily, and store Asian pears in the refrigerator.
