I've made spiced pears with them and pear upside down cake. At the farmers' market I bought a small jar of pear relish that was devine, perfect to accompany a pork roast or chops.

I love pears! I use them in fruit crisps & almost any recipe normally made w/ apples - pies, cakes, breads - & they make delicious sorbet too = )

I often mix other fruits w/ them - like raisins, cranberries, plums, strawberries & so on.

i just eat 'em out of hand. i can eat 2 or 3 a day... mmmmm... sand pears.

Here's a few from the cooking forum.

I think I love "sand pears" - hard, crunchy & watery-juicy sweet! Where's a good source to buy them at?

Try "Just Fruits and Exotics" nursery.

^ Thanks, but I don't see any there?

Sand pear = Asian pear, blakrab. There are several in your search results.
