The best Asian Pears

My asain pears love it here. Glad i planted them. Most everything im growing i never tried which has lead to a few duds for apples. I will say the korean giant were delicious this year. Last year they werent worth eating. Very sweet and crisp this year.

I think I have the same one in Washington.
I love it in fresh and fruit leather form, I will open a jar of the spiced ones soon, hopes are high. It has higher acid than the Bartlett or Bosc, still fragrant, but less delicate/perfumy than the bosc. A real good pear/pair with white cheddar, the local Beechers is recommended.

The grit is unfortunate. It ripens with Bosc though Bosc begins a few days earlier.
