Рецепт Six recipes featuring seasonal, versatile pears
Pears from the American Northwest are in delicious, abundant supply right now. Here are six different ways to make the most of them.
It’s that season. You know, apple season. Time for piling the family in the car and heading off to an orchard to pick more apples than you can possibly eat. Legions of apples taking over the produce department in the market. I like apples well enough, but I love also-in-season pears. Here are some ways we’ve cooked with them.
Pork Tenderloin with Roasted Pears and Onions
Pork always plays nicely with fruit, and this dish is no exception. Pork tenderloins are seared, then roasted in the oven with pears and onions. A sauce of chicken stock, port wine, Dijon mustard and herbes de Provence finishes the dish, shown above. You’ll find the recipe here.
Duck Breasts with Pears and Shallots

Cauliflower with Pears, Pistachios and Eggs
For this dish, Marion sautéed cauliflower with pistachios, ham, sage and pears, then topped everything with a fried egg for a weeknight-quick dinner. You can add or subtract various ingredients and to create a side, a vegan meal or a pasta dish.
Baked Pears with Currants and Walnuts
Sure, you can bake apples. But pears put a sweet, unexpected twist on this traditional fall dessert. In this recipe, they’re baked with dried currants, walnuts and cinnamon.

Roast Duck with Apples, Pears and Potatoes
If cold weather is seriously settling in, fight back with this hearty, satisfying dish. Fire up the oven and roast a whole duck. Oh, and roast apples, pears and potato wedges alongside it in the duck fat.
