Organic Pear – Bosc (each) Australia

Bosc pears are instantly recognisable with their elongated necks and russeted golden-brown skin. Known for their firm, dense flesh and sweet, honey-like flavour, they retain their texture well when cooked, making them a favourite for poaching and baking.

Rich in dietary fibre, vitamin C, and potassium, Bosc pears support digestion, bolster immunity, and contribute to heart health. Their lower water content compared to other varieties also makes them an excellent choice for preserving or drying.

Barry’s tips: Slice Bosc pears thinly and bake them into crisps for a naturally sweet snack. Alternatively, poach them in spiced red wine for a decadent dessert with a festive twist.
