PEAR PRESERVES
In the fall we would go to our farm and pick pears and apples. Then we'd build a campfire and roast hot dogs. Later we'd all get together and make big batches of these tasty preserves. -Tammy Watkins, Greentop, Missouri

MAMA'S PEAR PRESERVES
This is the way my mother and grandmother made pear preserves. I love the syrup in these preserves as much as I love the pears. My mother put up pear preserves every year. Her cousin provided the pears every year (from her trees) until the year my mom pasted away.

Steps:
- 1. Peel, core and slice pears. Place in large bowl and cover with sugar. Let set overnight or 6 to 8 hours.
- 2. When ready to cook; slowly cook over low to medium heat until the syrup thickens and turns an amber color. This will take a few hours. You can test the syrup by dropping a little on a plate; tilt plate to see if it is thick like syrup and not runny like water.
- 3. As soon as the amber color occurs and the syrup is thick enough, spoon/ladle the pears and syrup into clean jars; tighten lids. As the jars cool they will seal.
- 4. My mom never did processed her preserves in a hot water bath but I do: Start by sterilizing jars and lids. This takes a little while, so I start this 1st. I place my clean jars in my canner and cover with hot water. Bring this to a boil and boil for at least 10 minutes. Remove jars when ready to use. Pour some of the boiling water from jars back into canner and keep the water boiling so you will be ready to process jars of jam. In another small pot; sterilize lids in gently boiling water. Ladle hot jam into hot sterilized jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Wipe rims of the jars, cover with lids, and screw bands on until just barely tight. Place jars on rack in pot and cover completely with boiling water. Cover pot; boil over high heat for 10 minutes. Turn off heat, uncover pot, and allow jars to rest in water for five minutes. Remove jars from pot and allow them to rest undisturbed on countertop for six hours or overnight. Preserved jam will keep for up to one year in a cool, dark place. Unpreserved jam will keep in the refrigerator for about six months.
MAMA SHOF'S PEAR PICKLES

PEAR PRESERVES
Steps:
- In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the sugar and the water and bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook until the sugar is dissolved, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the pears and decrease the heat to low. Simmer until the pears are tender and transparent, an additional 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the heat and transfer to a rack to cool. Cover and let rest overnight in a cool place, up to 24 hours.
- Place a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet. Sterilize five 1-pint canning jars and lids in boiling water, following the manufacturer's instructions (or see Boiling-Water Canning, page 279). Remove the jars from the water and place upside down to drain on the prepared rack. Remove the lids from the water and dry with a clean towel. Turn the sterilized jars right side up on the rack, using tongs or a kitchen towel to protect your hands. When they are cool enough to handle, dry them with a clean towel. Set aside.
- Remove the pears from the syrup. Fill the hot jars according to the procedure for Raspberry Jam (page 289), and pour over the hot syrup, leaving 1/4 inch of headroom. Process the jars in a boiling-water canner for 20 minutes. Store the unopened jars at room temperature for up to 1 year. Once the jars are opened, store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
- variation
- For refrigerator preserves, skip the boiling-water canner and refrigerate for up to 1 month.
