Bartlett
Bartlett pears (also called Williams) have what most people would consider the true “pear flavor.” Both red and green Bartletts are bell-shaped. You can find them in stores from September through the early months of winter. Since pears are harvested unripe, allow them to ripen at room temperature.
How to eat Bartlett pears: These sweet Bartletts are delicious when eaten fresh, and are also a top variety for canning, chutneys, and pear preserves.
