Harvesting

Organic pears are cultivated in orchards that follow strict organic standards, free from synthetic pesticides and fertilisers. Harvested in late summer to early autumn at their peak ripeness, the pears are handpicked to maintain quality and washed thoroughly.

Once prepared, the pears are thinly sliced and gently dehydrated at low temperatures to retain their natural flavour, nutrients, and golden colour. Rich in dietary fibre, vitamin C, and potassium, these organic dehydrated pear slices offer a wholesome snack option, supporting digestion, immunity, and heart health without the need for additives or preservatives.

The organic nature of Organic Dried Pear Slices means that it is grown and harvested without the use of synthetic pesticides or fertilisers, preserving its natural composition.

Best Before

We believe in mindful consumption and want to share some insights on best before dates, especially when it comes to our dried foods. Best before dates indicate peak freshness and quality, not safety. Dried foods, such as grains and legumes, can often be safe and nutritious beyond their best before dates. They may lose a bit of their peak quality, but they remain a valuable and sustainable food source.

We encourage you to trust your senses. If stored properly and free from moisture, dried foods can maintain their safety and flavour for an extended period beyond the best before date. Embrace a less wasteful approach by exploring and using these ingredients even if they've passed their best before dates. Together, let's reduce food waste and maximise the full potential of every pantry staple.

Explore Waste Savers, where you'll find items approaching or past their best before date at reduced prices. Embrace conscious consumption, reduce food waste, and give these products a second chance. Your purchase not only saves you money but also contributes to a more sustainable and mindful approach to nourishment.

Packaging & Storage

You’ll receive your Organic Dried Pear Slices in a compostable kraft bag (unless you chose to get a compostable resealable pouch instead). These will be fine stored in the kraft bag for an extended time although, we recommend decanting and storing them in an airtight container to maintain optimum quality. Once decanted, you can save multiple bags and return them to us for a reward.

Spiced Pear Chutney

Transform Organic Dehydrated Pear slices into a delicious spiced pear chutney by simmering them with onions, ginger, cinnamon, and a hint of chilli. This versatile condiment pairs beautifully with plant-based cheese platters, sandwiches, and curries, adding a burst of fruity sweetness and warmth to your meals. It's a unique and flavourful way to enjoy the natural sweetness of dehydrated pears in a savoury context.

Dried Pear Bread

Combine flour, baking powder, and a touch of cinnamon in a bowl. In a separate bowl, mix melted butter, eggs, and honey. Gently fold in chopped organic dried pear slices and any nuts or seeds you like for added texture. Combine wet and dry ingredients, mix until just combined, and pour into a loaf pan. Bake at 180°C (350°F) for about 45-50 minutes or until golden and a skewer comes out clean. Let cool before slicing. Perfect for breakfast or a snack

Pear and Rocket Salad

Create a refreshing and nutritious salad by combining organic dehydrated pear slices with fresh rocket leaves, crumbled plant-based feta cheese, and a drizzle of balsamic vinaigrette. The sweet and tangy flavour of the pears complements the peppery taste of the rocket, resulting in a delicious salad that's perfect for a light lunch or as a side dish for dinner.
