Bottling pears
Having a lot of pears this year I thought I would bottle them. However I
am not certain if they should be fully ripe or under ripe. Can anyone help please? -- Please reply to group,emails to designated address are never read. |

I bottle pears every year, and the best results are from slightly underripe firm pears. However as long as the pears are not over ripe, they bottle ok, wet oven bottling tends to make them soggy, but the taste is fine. |
