Abate Pears
Ref: PES-01
Italian name: Pere Abate
Weight order: 3-4 kg
Description: Pere Abate are richer in fructose and other simple sugars than most pears, and are therefore ideal when one needs a burst of energy. They are also a good source of fiber, mineral salts, and malic and citric acid, which are antioxidant.
Season: September and October
Serving suggestion: Though one can do other things with them, the classic Italian way of enjoying a pear is with a moderately firm wedge of Pecorino Toscano or Sardo.
