Pears – Red Bartlett

A Traditional late summer treat.  Just as Yellow Bartletts change color while ripening, so do Red Bartletts; changing from a dark red often with light vertical striping to become a beautiful bright red.  As they ripen, Red Bartletts offer different flavors and textures, starting crunchy and tart when underripe, and finishing super sweet and juicy when fully ripened.

Red Bartletts offer much the same great flavors as Yellow Bartletts, but their color simply adds to their appeal! Consider sliced red pears to liven up green salads or other recipes
