Description

Perry Pears: Rare and Heritage Fruit Cultivars #6 by C. Thornton Discover the unique and historic perry pear cultivars that have been rediscovered by enthusiastic brewers. This book explores the characteristics, history, and flavour profiles of these special fruits, which are part of our horticultural and culinary heritage. Learn how these rare and heritage fruits, such as old-fashioned varieties of apple, quince, and pear, are increasingly popular due to their diverse flavours and excellent nutritional qualities. Perry pears are the key ingredient in a traditional alcoholic beverage made by fermentation, which can be brewed at home. Some call this drink 'pear cider', and when made from real perry pears, it is a refreshing, light, and delicate drink, rivalling high-quality champagne. This book is one of a series written for 'backyard farmers' of the 21st century, focusing on rare and heritage fruit in Australia, but with information of interest to fruit enthusiasts around the world. By exploring these unique and historic cultivars, you'll gain a deeper understanding of the diversity of fruit available and the importance of preserving our horticultural and culinary heritage.
