Saffron and Honey

Eat Chic

March 6, 2012

Ingredient of the month: pears!

You voted, and pears are the ingredient of the month!

They are coming to the end of their season in late March/early April, so this will be a great opportunity to get creative.

I have plans for roasted pears, pickled pears, pan-fried pears, pear tatin, pear compote, and pear pancakes, so stock up on Boscs, Bartletts, Anjou, or Starkrimsons!

In the meantime, here are some of my favorite s&h recipes using pears:

  • Fennel, halloumi, and pear salad
  • Autumn claufotis
  • More claufotis – baked pears poached in mulled wine
