PEAR WITH ME

_MG_7244


In our kitchen, this condiment is to overripe pears what banana bread is to brown bananas. We use it as a substitute for the Swedish staple lingonberry jam or rowan berry jelly. If a recipe calls for apple sauce, this is a fun twist.  If I want less of a kick, I simply leave out the chili and ginger. 

I penned it down at least 17 years ago and attributed the original recipe to Per Dahlberg. Considering how many times we have used this recipe, we owe him a visit to his restaurant Gastro in Helsingborg. 

4 pears, peeled and diced
0,5 tbs butter
2 limefruits, juice only
1 tbs honey
0,5 red chili, thin slices 
1 tsp ginger, grated

Warm pears in butter, without browning. Add honey and stir. Add lime juice to taste. Cook gently until it becomes a lumpy puree. Add chili and ginger. 
Store in refrigerator.
