Hereâs what you need to do to ripen your pears: 1  Leave firm, unripe pears at room temperature so that they can ripen. 2  Check the Neck for Ripeness daily, by applying gentle pressure to the neck, or stem end, of the pear with your thumb. If it yields to pressure, then itâs ripe and ready to eat!
Itâs strange to think we need to be taught how to ripen pears. Donât plants do this sort of thing on their own, without busybody humans getting into their business? The thing is, pears are one of the only fruits that donât ripen on the tree/vine. A tree-ripened pear is mealy and mushy. So pears are best picked green. Many folks have come to believe that pears are picked green in order to truck here and there around the country without bruising them.
