What is Singo Pear?

Singo Pear, also written as Shingo Pear, is a large Asian pear commonly sold in Korean pear boxes. It is linked with the Niitaka / 新高梨 pear variety and is known for its large size, firm crunch and high juiciness.

In Korean markets, Singo Pear is commonly associated with Korean pear or 신고배. In Chinese, 新高梨 may be written as Xin Gao Li. In Japanese, Niitaka is another name connected with the same variety group.

Because this fruit name can appear across different languages and countries, the latest country of origin should follow the carton label. For SKC Fruits, if the carton is from Korea, it is best listed as Korean Singo Pear. If it is from China, list it as China Xin Gao Pear.

Is 新高梨 from Korea or China?

新高梨 / Xin Gao Li / Niitaka is a variety name, not a country name. The variety was developed in Japan, then became widely grown and sold in Korea as Singo or Shingo Pear. China may also sell pears under the Chinese name 新高梨.

For customer-facing Shopify copy, the safest wording depends on your carton:

Singo Pear vs Golden Pear

Many customers compare singo pear vs golden pear because both can look large, round and golden-brown. However, Singo Pear and Golden Pear should not always be treated as the same fruit.

Singo Pear / Shingo Pear / Niitaka / 新高梨 refers to a specific Asian pear variety name. Golden pear may be used as a broad descriptive name for yellow or golden-brown pears, or it may refer to a different Korean pear variety depending on the carton label.

Korean Golden Pear vs Korean Singo Pear

Korean golden pear and Korean Singo Pear can both be Korean Asian pears, but they may not be the same variety. Singo Pear is commonly linked with Shingo / Niitaka / 新高梨, while Golden Pear may refer to a different Korean variety or a golden-skinned pear label.

If your supplier gives a Korean pear box with the variety name Singo / Shingo / 신고, use Singo Pear. If the supplier gives Golden / Hwangkeum / 황금, use Korean Golden Pear instead.

How to Choose a Good Singo Pear

Choose Singo pears that feel heavy for their size, with fresh-looking golden-brown skin and no mould, leaking juice or collapsed soft patches. Natural speckles are normal for Asian pears.

Singo Pear is usually eaten firm and crisp, so it does not need to become soft like a Western pear. A very soft Singo Pear may be overripe or damaged.

How to Eat Korean Pear

If you are wondering how to eat Korean pear, the easiest way is to serve it fresh and chilled. Wash the pear, peel if preferred, then slice around the centre core.

The crisp slices are refreshing as after-meal fruit, office fruit, lunchbox fruit or a fruit platter item. Korean Asian pears can also be grated into marinades because their juice adds sweetness and helps soften meat texture in cooking.

• Wash gently before eating
• Peel the skin if preferred
• Slice around the centre core
• Serve fresh and chilled
• Add to fruit platters, salads or cheese boards
• Use grated pear in Korean-style marinades
• Use in simple desserts with rock sugar if preferred
