New Organic Pear Products

Pears are one of my favorite fruits, and they’re currently in season.

Two new organic pear products have found their way into my grocery cart: Zhena Caramelized Pear Tea and Wallaby Nonfat Bartlett Pear Yogurt.

The Caramelized Pear Tea is a blend of organic ingredients: 100% Fair Trade green tea, pear pieces, marigold flowers, and caramel and pear flavors. The 15 biodegradable tea sachets, made of GMO-free corn silk, are packed in a recyclable, airtight tin.

The Bartlett Pear Yogurt also features all-organic ingredients: cultured pasteurized nonfat milk, evaporated cane juice, pear juice concentrate, natural flavor, pectin and locust bean gum. A 6-oz. container has 130 calories and meets 25% of your daily calcium requirement. Click here to find a store near you.

Pick up some organic pears at your local farmers’ market, and try four favorite recipes:

1. Romaine, Pecan and Pear Salad
2. Wilted Greens with Pinot Pears
3. Marjoram-Scented Pears with Gorgonzola
4. Pear and Chocolate Spread

Also: Check out an old favorite, Dishmate Pear Ultra Concentrated Dish Washing Liquid.
