  • Rosemarie pears are small in size, averaging 5-7 centimeters in length, and are symmetrical in shape with a rounded, bell-shaped base tapering to a short neck with a slender light green stem. The smooth, thin skin transforms from green to yellow when ripe and is covered in red blushing, crimson lenticels or pores, and has a slightly waxy sheen. When ripe, Rosemarie pears are crisp with sweet and tangy flavors.

  • Rosemarie pears are most commonly enjoyed fresh as a snack, as an accompaniment in winter salads, and used as a garnish for savory soups. They can also be used in oatmeal, on cereal, in pancakes or waffles, layered in sandwiches, paninis, and quesadillas, chopped into salsa or used as a chocolate fondue item.

  • They will keep 2-4 days when stored at room temperature and a couple of weeks when stored in a perforated bag in the refrigerator.

  • Kale Salad with Pears and Walnuts

    Ingredients:

    1 bunch kale
    2 tablespoons olive oil + 1 teaspoon olive oil
    1 tablespoon lemon juice
    salt and pepper to taste
    1 pear, cut into pieces
    1/2 cup walnuts, toasted

    Instructions:

    1. Take the kale leaves off the stems and cut the kale into small ribbons. Place it in a medium bowl and add one teaspoon olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Massage the kale with your hands for about 2 minutes, until it starts to wilt and the color gets darker.
    2. Whisk together 2 tablespoons of olive oil with the lemon juice. Add salt and pepper to taste. Toss the kale with the desired amount of dressing (you probably won't need all the dressing). Add the pear and walnuts and toss to combine.
