Taste the Sweetness of Japan!

Are you craving a taste of home or looking for a new, exquisite fruit to try? Look no further than this box of Yamagata pears from Costco. Unlike the crisp pears you might be used to, these are incredibly soft and juicy when ripe, with a rich, fragrant sweetness that's simply unforgettable. They're a true gourmet delight. 

Who is this for?

 This product is perfect for:

Expatriates missing home comforts: If you grew up with soft, sweet pears, these will be a nostalgic and delicious treat.

Anyone with a sweet tooth: These pears are so naturally sweet they can be enjoyed on their own as a healthy dessert.

Foodies and culinary adventurers: If you're looking to experience high-quality Japanese produce, this is an excellent choice. Yamagata is a famous pear-growing region. 

Product Details & How to Enjoy

Ripening is Key: These pears are not ready to eat right away. You must let them ripen at room temperature. They are ready when the skin around the stem feels soft to the touch and a sweet aroma fills the air.

Serving Suggestions: Once ripe, chill them in the refrigerator for a few hours before eating. The cool temperature enhances the flavor and makes them even more refreshing.

How to use leftovers: Since the box contains a generous amount (about 2kg), you may not be able to eat them all at once.

Desserts: They are perfect for making pear tarts, crumbles, or a simple pear compote.

Freezing: Cut the ripe pears into cubes or slices and freeze them on a baking sheet. Once solid, transfer them to a freezer bag. They can then be used later for smoothies or a quick, frozen dessert.

Size: The pears come in a 2kg box, so you have plenty to share or use for multiple recipes.

Enjoy this delightful taste of Japanese autumn!
