Bosc Pears

Bosc Pears

EverydayFresh

Bosc pears are a winter pear variety recognized by their elongated neck, golden-brown russeted skin, and dense, crisp flesh that softens to a smooth texture when ripe. Unlike softer pear varieties, they retain their structure exceptionally well when cooked, making them ideal for baking, poaching, or pairing with cheeses. These pears provide a higher fiber content than many common fruits and deliver a subtly sweet, honeyed flavor with warm spice undertones.
