Su Pear (白梨)

The sweetness of the Ya Li pear varies depending on how ripe it was when harvested. If you are lucky enough to get ripe ones, they are sweet and juicy and taste similar to the traditional Asian pear, with a crisp, juicy, sweet taste and the texture of a light apple. If not, try them again and you will be pleasantly surprised by the sweetness!

STORAGE

The refrigerator is the best place for Ya Li pear. The cool and calm environment of the fridge helps in prolonging the shelf life, quality and freshness for almost two weeks.

FUN FACTS & TIPS

Ya Li pears tend to get bruised and turn black quickly. That's why all Ya Li bulbs in the supermarket are individually wrapped in white cellophane sleeves to keep them in perfect condition.
