In French, we say \u201cse fend la poire\u201d (to laugh your \u201cpear\u201d\/head off) when we laugh out loud… proof that this fruit has been making people smile for a very long time! Juicy, tender and delicately sweet, pears add freshness and indulgence to our recipes. Its subtle fragrance, at the same time floral and fruity, pairs equally well with desserts and drinks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where do pears come from?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Pears, which grow on pear trees, are known for their tender, slightly grainy flesh. Native to Central Asia, they were already being cultivated in China over 4,000 years ago. They later made their way to Europe, where the Greeks and Romans embraced them for their sweetness and medicinal properties. Homer even called them the \u201cfruit of the gods\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Much later, in France, pears were popularized in the 17th century thanks to Louis XIV and his gardener Jean-Baptiste de La Quintinie, who introduced many varieties into the King’s Kitchen Garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
