Dear Don, Pears ripen from the inside out, so you canât judge their ripeness by looking at the skin. To test if a pear is ripe, apply gentle pressure near the stem end. If it gives slightly, itâs most likely ready to be eaten. Pears are one of the few fruits that donât ripen successfully on the tree.
Squeezing them will tell you what stage they're at. Gently press or squeeze the shoulder and tip (where the stem was) - if it just starts to give, it's ripe and ready to eat. If the peach is still firm, it's great if you like crunchy peaches or want to toss them into salads since they'll hold up better.
