Comments

The pear is very tasty and healthy, but before giving this fresh fruit to small children, it should first be peeled, especially if we are not talking about your own harvest.

I really like pears, but only summer varieties that are juicy and not hard. Hard ones make tasty jam or jam. Together with apple and plum, you get a delicious puree that is especially useful for children.
