Title: 60 pounds of pears
Post by: Ridgeratt on September 22, 2018, 07:10:10 AM: So when your relative gives you a couple of boxes of pears what do you do before they are soft?

You make Pear Honey. :IBCOOL:

Sometimes Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Ginger, Cloves or just pears. It's all good.

It doesn't get bottled in those little girly jars either. 12 oz. or better. :chuckle:

Post by: boneaddict on September 23, 2018, 09:16:14 AM: by the way, looks better than when you do it versus the last bear I seen. About the same consistency, but certainly a more appealing color. Taste, well :chuckle:

Post by: lokidog on September 23, 2018, 12:27:10 PM: Is that the same as apple "butter"? But, with pears, of course.... :chuckle:

BTW, anyone doing fruit stuff and doesn't want their fruit juice to get brown, go to a brewery supply place and get some ascorbic acid or acid blend crystals. Less than 1/2t. is enough to keep over 2 gallons of apple juice from browning up. Lemon juice works, but sometimes you don't want that lemon flavor. I also put a little in a pan when I'm slicing apples and pears for drying, a quick dip and they stay fresher looking.

Post by: PolarBear on September 28, 2018, 08:23:12 AM: You could mash them up, throw them in a barrel with some corn meal, 6 row barley, sugar and yeast. :chuckle:

I did that once with some shrimp, put them in the guy's freezer since he wasn't home... never heard from him again, maybe I crossed a line? :dunno: Figured he'd prefer them there than on his picnic table on the deck. The dogs didn't mind..... :rolleyes:
