The Pear Aficionado by Lori Nawyn read ebook DOC, EPUB
9781939629180 English 1939629187 A Bartlett pear tree in the heart of a cherry grove. Picked and first tasted when mature but yet green, the tree's bounty of fresh fruit did little to inspire the palate or imagination of cookbook author Lori Nawyn, who as a teenager spent summers working in her father's orchard. Tree loads of tart cherries provided a sustainable means of income: Lori could sell cherries to nearby canneries or at a small roadside stand. And the handful of peach trees rimming the orchard provided sweet, juicy respite plucked right off the tree when she was hungry; as did the red, summer-ripened fruits that beckoned from a tangle of nearby raspberry bushes. But the Bartletts? As hard as an apple and without the sweetness--and if left on the tree becoming mushy and unappealing--what use were they?It wouldn't be until years later that Lori discovered pears must be picked at maturity, but not full ripeness. Only days or weeks later are they ready to eat. It is then they reward the patient pear aficionado with the full wonder of their flavor, and prove that as with all truly good things they're worth the wait. The Pear Aficionado examines the unassuming and often underappreciated pear from orchard to table where it steals home plate with its flavor and versatility. With recipes for both the novice and intermediate home chef, the book showcases the fruit in an impressive variety of dishes ranging from fresh pear salads, to a pear quiche and a Caramelized pear mock souffl�, a simple pear and berry galette, pear tarts, tortes, scones, and Chocolate Pear Biscotti, to Pear Salad Croissants, Salmon with Pear Marmalade and Balsamic Vinegar Reduction, and a tangy Grilled Pear and Swiss Reuben with Spicy Mustard Aioli.
