Quantity/Pack:Seasonality: April, SeptemberOrigin: Argentina (April), USA-OR/WA (September) With their bold color and juicy, aromatic flesh, Melissa’s Organic Red Bartlett Pears bring a fresh pop of flavor—and beauty—to any plate. Grown with care and certified organic, these seasonal favorites have a smooth texture and a sweet, floral flavor that becomes even richer as the fruit ripens. Red Bartletts are similar to the classic green Bartlett, but what sets them apart is their stunning crimson skin, which deepens as they mature. Their eye-catching appearance makes them ideal for fruit platters, cheese boards, or sliced fresh for snacking. They’re also incredibly versatile in the kitchen. Enjoy them in savory dishes like a pear and spinach salad or pear and prosciutto flatbreads, or use them in baked recipes like poached pears with sweet Italian cheese. When the neck of the pear yields gently to pressure, it’s perfectly ripe and ready to enjoy. Store at room temperature to ripen, then refrigerate to preserve freshness once they reach your preferred softness.
