First, pears are crazy slippery to peel. Second, it was worth every slimy minute. Hyper kids scrambled my brain and I dumped all of the ingredients in at once instead of holding the sugar and salt until after the pears were pureed. Everything thickened and nothing stuck to the pot so I think I’m okay there. I’m very careful about weighing ingredients and I always end up with higher yield, which makes me slightly uneasy. Any tips on why this might be true?

This stuff is amazing. I see a return trip to Costco for cheap pears in my future!
