Fresh pears

Cooking method

• I looked for a topic about dried pears and did not find that Do we have such a thing, or I was looking badly?
• Well, okay, I'll write here ... if you find where the recipe for dried pears is, whisper
• I got pears today from a grandmother from the Moscow region of Dmitrov, my own family. They did not come out in style, with pigment spots - but inside they are clean and juicy !!! And they cost only 25 rubles per kilogram !!!
• 
• I washed, cleaned, did not remove the pigment spots, there is no need to do this, since under them there is completely clean pulp.
• The middle took out specials. with a knife to remove the core from apples.
• 
• Then I cut the pears into rounds, on a burner grater, on a thick cut. The thickness of the slices is approximately 0.5-0.6 mm., Will dry out and become even thinner.
• 
• I put the resulting rounds on the pallets of the Orson dryer, and put them to dry until the morning at T * 45 * C.
• 
• But what came out of the pears after 7-8 hours of drying, the pears dried up !!!
• 
• You can help yourself! They did not come out in color, they darkened - but, the taste is sweet)))
• 

Note

I never remove the peel from apples, pears and other fruits (with rare exceptions)
This is natural fiber, which is so necessary for our body, and for which we chase in a ground form in stores. Separately, who of you puts a teaspoon of fiber in kefir at night? Almost nobody! And we even completely forget that in the closet somewhere there is this same bag of purchased fiber And what is there mixed in the bag for weight? The label says beautifully. Perhaps there are fruit skins that need to be used somewhere in the production of juices, compotes ... where you need to peel off using technology.

And here, please - the fiber itself in the mouth asks in the form of skins on dried fruits, and we throw it away
Now try to grind a dry pear in a blender - here's your homemade fiber!

These pears of the little huskies from the garden of Dmitrov's grandmother turned out to be covered with pigment spots on top, and inside they were clean, clean, and sweet.
And they began to darken immediately after cutting, well ... they are like that, Dmitrov's babies

Dry your fruit for health!

The topic was the answer for Natasha on:

Tatyana, very necessary. I have a lot of pears. And a lot of jam from last year. No one is.

[Tatyana]

Tatyana, thanks for the topic. Looking forward to continuing: girl-yes: The pear season has begun.

I am now also local dry land (my mother grew up). But I clean it first. The skins are dried separately (in winter they will go to the pot), slices separately (we can, as small as chips will hamster)

The most correct, in my opinion, method of preserving pears. Even not quite sweet, "mealy" pears become delicious when dried. But I used to dry them just in the sun.
I will wait for the final photo. There is no good dryer on the farm yet (there is simply nowhere to put it). Today I'm going to pick up the Samobranka rug. But I wonder how it will turn out in Oursson. At least I'll dream for now.

Something seems to me that if the skins are cut off, then there will be nothing to eat

[Natalishka]

Natalishkaprobably depends on pears. Small "Central Russian" I would not clean either. And their skin is delicious.

Girls, and I have very small pears, but there are a lot on the branches, and the branches break under the weight of the fruits. Yesterday I had to remove 3 buckets of pears from the branches. But they are still hard and not ripe.Can I dry them already or wait until they become softer? I just bought an Isidri 1000 dryer, it's a pity that there is no deep tray, it is not completely dry.

Of course, let them lie down, but not for long, otherwise they will be tied down. If you dry it now, it will not be tasty (bitter).

Later I will expose photos of ready-made pears and finalize the theme. Pears turned out to be very sweet in taste.

Do not dry the whole pear in the dryer, it will not work

If you can completely preserve, then try this option:

Sweet pears "candied fruits (glace fruits)" (Admin)



An excellent solution and high quality sugar preservation. They even stood on the balcony all summer, and nothing became of them

[Tatyana]

Tatyana, I dried small sweet pears whole, but in the oven. I dried it for a very long time and the pears were almost ripe. How delicious it was, inside is sweetness, similar in taste to honey. But, on such a feat in the oven, I will no longer dare. And the gas oven ...

[Natasha]

Natasha, here I am, too. The oven can still handle whole pears, but not the dryer.
Well, if you have the desire and the opportunity, you can try to cook in the dryer

By the way, these pears I dried in isidri:

Dried pears (Admin)

Why just cut off the skins?

* sigh *
And because my skin will not eat harm (
Purchased chips are unknown from what they will eat - they are without skin
And there will be no dried apple or pear - the skin is because

Now try to grind a dry pear in a blender - here's your homemade fiber!

I didn't think about a blender. Thank you!
Although, until the skins have time to dry, I will pass them through a meat grinder according to Luda's recipe and dry them in granulated

[Admin]

Admin,

By the way, these pears I dried in isidri:

Tatyana looked at the recipe and I have a technical question ... pears in half ... but Isidri's pallet is shallow ... how did you stack the pallets on top of each other ... there must have been cracks there?

1. Match pears by size so that the pallets cover each other.
2. Have an expansion ring that will increase the height of the pallets. To do this, I donated one pallet, cut out the filling from it, leaving only the sides. Such a ring is useful for various purposes, for example, for drying sausages, meat - where the height of the pallets is needed.

[Admin]

Admin,

For this I donated one pallet

Thanks for the tips on those. questions. But the toad presses the pallet to spoil it, I'll try to increase the height in a different way. In the middle, a plastic glass (I already found it on the farm) is a little cone, the next pallet fits perfectly on it, I will install a few wooden skewers for barbecue on the sides. But I will close the gap formed between the pallets with parchment paper. I will try

Tanya, excellent pears! Your homemade ones are the most delicious :)

I'll show you a photo in the morning

I would like to take a look)

I would like to take a look)

You can, all the photos are already in place

[Tatyana]

Tatyana, Thank you. I will dry it too.

You can, all the photos are already in place

Oh thanks!
I don’t clean the skins either)

Girls, and I have very small pears, but there are a lot on the branches, and the branches break under the weight of the fruits. Yesterday I had to remove 3 buckets of pears from the branches. But they are still hard and not ripe. Can I dry them already or wait until they become softer? I just bought an Isidri 1000 dryer, it's a pity that there is no deep pallet, it is not completely dry.

And it will be very difficult to dry them entirely. Moisture leaves the skin very hard. Better to cut it in half.

Girls, dried pears are delicious. I'm drying for the third year. It is not very successful if there are a lot of stony cells in pears, there are such varieties, but this is not a problem, in fact. I eat them like that, just dry. I don't cook any compotes - they don't get it))). Pears are very sweet when dry. Even those that during "life" were fresh and "none".

Although dried apples, for my personal taste, no one has surpassed !!)))

Moisture leaves the skin very hard.

And it depends on personal qualities and pear varieties. Here, the huskies near Moscow dried up overnight and are sweet inside. And the noble ones, sorry, costing under 200 rubles, do not want to dry very much ... waiting for this miracle to happen And cut just one pear, just to look at the color after drying, it also darkens during the drying process - you can already see

I also dried a trial batch of pears, it turned out very tasty. But it seems to me that you can safely not take the middle out of them. First, it turns out to be very soft and tender. Secondly, this is how they can be distinguished from apples in a fruit mix.
Yes, I left the skin too.

I dried the second batch of pears with a middle - the flight is normal
Specially dried 1 pear of "noble blood" for 200 kg. (which is in the photo), all the same, the plates darken during drying, become gray

The color after drying is highly dependent on the stage of ripeness / storage. For the third year I have been drying the same pear (from one tree). They differ in batches: now everything is white after drying, then the color of burnt caramel.

And apples? My apples are also multi-colored. True, I did not pay attention - from one tree or not

[Tatyana]

Tatyana, I report. Here are my pears. I liked the rings, I even just eat it. And it dries faster: girl-yes: Thank you

[Natasha]

Natasha, look very nice and neat
At first I was surprised why my "rings" are here in the photo. They are also gray in color.

Natasha, FOR HEALTH!

[Tatyana]

Tatyana, well, who is our teacher: friends: Pears are not yet ripe, although they are sweet. I'll dry it once a week until it's ripe.

Natasha, and my huskies are also sweet, they turned out in dried form, delicious. I run to the market on weekends, maybe I'll still see Dmitrov's husks And immature ones are even better, dry well, and will not be too sticky from sugar.

[Tatyana]

Tatyana, I have an autumn variety, they are still growing. Although, it's strange, This year, they sing for a long time: pardon: It seems that the summer was

Please tell a newbie.
So I dried the pears, they turned out to be quite dry, but a little sticky. Moreover, this stickiness is not because of the liquid, but because of the sweetness)) The drying turned out to be very sweet - well, almost candied fruit! Apparently, the variety came across the correct one, because the previous batch was completely different.
So I think: can pears be put in jars, they won't deteriorate? If you dry it, you get not even chips, but practically paper

Can be stored. The main thing is that moisture does not remain in drying, and the stickiness depends on the sugar content of the fruit.

Thank you, so I'll leave it that way.It will be a pity if the work is lost, and the pear turned out to be delicious.

When drying, as I understood from my little experience, you need to find the "right" fruit variety. I dried several types of pears for testing, and only these turned out to be really tasty.
Apples have the same problem.

So I decided to show you more. Here I cut in quarters. The result is not so crumbly, softish.

And here for a test, cut into quarters and cleaned the skin. For some reason, the taste is similar to dried bananas.

Why just cut off the skins?
This is natural fiber, so necessary for our body

I cut off pears only because the whole peel was in some kind of incomprehensible speck ...

But I deliberately peeled the apples, it tastes better without the peel ...

I read somewhere, now I can not find that apple peel can be dried separately and ground into powder for further use ...

Today I just bought excellent apples for drying, maybe I really don't throw away the peel, but dry it ...

Tanya, thank you very much for the pear recipe !!!

It turned out sooo tasty, it's a pity only a little ...

[Inna]

Tanya, thank you very much for the pear recipe !!!

It turned out sooo tasty, it's a pity only a little ...

Inna, to your health!

It might just be age spots - that's okay! They will not be visible on the pears hanging out, look at my photos
I don’t peel apples and pears.
If you wish, then you can then grind the whole drying in a blender, and get a fine crumb-flour
We do not need so much of it in cooking, but for "chewing" and with the skin it is tasty and healthy whole fruit with the skin

[Tatyana]

Tatyana, and if the core is not cut, is it okay? I'll try to cut it into circles in a combine, since the pears were brought to us long and thin, they pass entirely into the loading hole.

[CHEF]

CHEF, absolutely nothing wrong, even more fiber will get into the stomach, and the bones are also useful. In the future, I did just that.

I do not advise you to cut in a combine - very thin cutting, moreover, uneven, discs "tear" the pear. Such a pear will dry out to the state of "paper".
If you are sure that the circles will be even and thick, then it is possible in the combine.
It is better to cut it with a knife, about 5-7 mm in size. it will be fast and neat

I, too, never dirty the harvester. I take out the core with a core knife, it turns out an even round hole and then I cut it into round pieces with a simple knife. It's fast. And I don't like it with seeds. Even not so much seeds as membranes as transparent as plastic. I love non-waste eating: I put it in my mouth and chew))). I eat them only dry, I don't cook anything. And to clean - no way! I dry in buckets. Buckets !!! Both apples and pears. With such volumes, it is easier to shoot at once))).

[Natasha]

I dry in buckets. Buckets !!! Both apples and pears.

Natasha, is that why you said that?
I just calmed down with drying, now I have no rest - I also need buckets Oh, it hurts quickly apples and pears are then chewed

[Admin]

Admin,

I already wrote somewhere that last year I dried some mind-boggling amount of buckets of apples. It turned out to be such a hefty bag (60X60 full pillowcase). Every evening I would take out the previous batch and load the dryer with a bucket of fresh apples (after work). My neighbor took out apples from the site three times (he had nowhere to put them) ... in cars! yes, construction cars. I thought we would peel off from so many apples in the body (charlottes, compotes, raw and drying!). But my dried apples ran out in early February))). And until spring and new apples to puff and puff! There are no apples this year (they will be born here in a year), but a wagon of pears. Dried a bag of pears. I protect him, otherwise the children have already attempted to kill them repeatedly!))) There should be apples next year. Oh, I'll come off!)))

The plums were also surprisingly successful. Our usual middle stripes are blue. During their lifetime they were sweet, good. but after drying, plums always taste sharp, like apricots. They are usually warmed up or exposed in honey / syrup, then allowed to swell and dried.But I had no time and dried the halves just like that. I thought they would go to compote. They turned out to have a rather "spicy" taste, sweet and sour, but some surprisingly pleasant plum taste. They did not live to see the sack. The children ate them first from the dryer, and what they had time to pour into the plate - already from the plate))).

ALL! I went to the market ... I will bargain about the price and then carry bags to the dryer

Something from my bowl of mixed fruit and berries, only half of it was left I don't understand where it all went

Oh, virgins. I have the same story. I dried 25 kg of cherries, the same amount of cherries, an apricot and everything is already gone ... They ask if there is still, I say everything .. I can't even imagine how much it takes to have enough at least until the New Year.
Now I am drying apples, there are enough apples, but not enough in time. You probably need 48 hours a day ..
Apples, like Natasha Schochelka, also cut out the core, very hard seed pods, I don't peel them, I cut them by hand. And I make a blank for drying, while one batch is drying in the dryer, I cut apples into round pieces, put them in a large saucepan, sprinkle with sugar - I have Antonovka - sourish, and put them in the refrigerator. And in the process of drying, I remove the finished ones from the pallets and put the blank. I thought for a little compote, but all of mine crack them without stopping, and I myself too. Delicious. But I have already stowed the pillowcase, I give out dosed in 3-liter bags for freezing. My daughter drags her to work, and then she flies in ...
Oh, Tanya-Admin, you hooked us on drying! I did not even expect that she would be so in demand ...
You should probably also run for pears while they are there.

[Nagy]

Oh, Tanya-Admin, you hooked us on drying! I did not even expect that she would be so in demand ...

Sinful, I am sinful I scold myself, so much trouble with her
Nagy, or maybe hand them over for scrap? And the problems will go away immediately, and a lot of time will be added!
Yes, and what will be the savings, there is no need to jump for apples and pears

[Admin]

Admin, oh Tanya, after this season I am FOR !! Only I'm afraid those whom we have tamed against will be .. and it's contagious, I bought half of it for myself, too.
We'll rest next year. Catch me at my word ... (let's go to the theater, let's go ... or something ..)
