apple pears
它是什么？
Asian pears originated in East Asia but are grown throughout the world today. The most common type in the United States is the Twentieth Century (or Nijisseiki). It’s round and fat, with a slightly flat top and greenish skin that yellows as it ripens.
苹果的紧缩和形状，普通梨的颗粒状质地以及菠萝的多汁味道，轻轻的甜美亚洲梨是7月至秋季初市场的可喜补充。亚洲梨的欧洲梨品种的亲戚像巴特利特（Bartlett）和安茹（Anjou）一样，非常适合食谱或简单地食用。它保留了酥脆性，可在色拉和沙拉中效果很好，并且在烘烤和煮熟时，其形状比欧洲梨更好。下次您外出时，请接一些 - 他们很可能是您的新夏季爱情。
How to choose:
亚洲梨在成熟度的峰值上收获。它们很容易瘀伤，因此通常以保护性网为销售。寻找牢固的水果（与欧洲同行不同，亚洲梨成熟后不会变软），几乎没有痕迹和微妙的花香。避免触摸的梨萎缩或感到柔软 - 它们不应承受轻微的压力。
How to prep:
Asian pears have tender skin, so you don’t need to peel them. Try them raw: Dice and add them to chicken salad; slice thinly and toss them with mixed lettuces, nuts, and vinaigrette; or julienne and add them to a slaw. They pair wonderfully with pungent cheeses like blue, Gouda, or Cabrales—simply slice the pears and serve with the cheese of your choice.
Although Asian pears have firm flesh, they’re also extremely juicy and when cooked tend to give off more liquid than apples or pears do. Their mild flavor goes well with a variety of ingredients from the global pantry; pair them with ginger, star anise, soy sauce, five-spice powder, or even curry powder. We especially love them sautéed and served with pork, puréed in velvety soups, or for a special treat, infused with spices and honey as a warm, heady pancake and waffle topping. If you’re lucky enough to score a great deal on Asian pears at the farmers’ market, try this: Core the pears and slice them into eighths; then poach, can, and enjoy them for months to come.
How to store:
They have a remarkable shelf life, lasting for up to four months in the refrigerator crisper drawer. At room temperature, they’ll sit happily in a fruit bowl for two weeks without losing their crunch.
