Freezing Pears

RE: Freezing Pears By Crsimerley (1) Contact I peel and cut up the pears. Put them in a large pan and cover them up with water. I add splenda, but you could use sugar. I don't really measure I just put in what I think looks good. I also add cinnimon and a touch of vanilla. I let that boil for about 3 minutes. Then I get some of the juice out and mix with cornstarch and add to pears while boiling. Repeat this last step until you get the thickness that you like. Cool then put into freezer bags before freezing. I use this to make pear cobblers. Posted on 08/25/2009 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Freezing Pears By Verna M. U. (Guest Post) I have 2 large pear trees. Select firm pears. I make a syrup of White Grape Concentrate, and dilute it according to directions. (may need a little more concentrate to make it sweet enough). I add this (plus 3/4 teas. ascorbic acid to a quart of syrup) to a kettle of quartered or sliced pears, bring to boil, boil 2 min. and ladle into freezer containers. (A six quart kettle needs 3 cups liquid.) Posted on 11/10/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Freezing Pears By Rosalie Craig (Guest Post) Your information for freezing pears is precise and to the point. Thanks for not making us have to read, log on to, purchase, and go through a lot of information before finding what we need. I just loved it. I am from the city and because of your feedback I will now make a first attempt to can the pears that I have on hand. I am now living in an area where fruit trees and vegetables are plentiful. I am a 70 year old who knows that you are never to old to learn. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Posted on 09/20/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Freezing Pears By Cathi. (Guest Post) Ann, Do you have the recipe available to others for the pear pie filling. I have 5 trees full and are not sure how to freeze them. Would can if necessary but not real kicked up about it.

Courtsey of my Home Ec Teacher in ~~ 1956 They do can well--, pear preserves and pear butter/honey is wonderful-- good luck Posted on 09/01/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Freezing Pears By Lucinda (Guest Post) this site should help you http://www.pickyourown.org/allaboutcanning.htm# god bless Posted on 09/01/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Freezing Pears By Ann (Guest Post) I don't know how they are frozen raw but I have made lots of cooked pear pie filling and frozen it and it was great.
