Directions
Pickled Asian Pears (Wor Mei Lei), This is from Eileen Yin-Fei Lo’s The Chinese Kitchen, one of the finest classic Chinese cookbooks in English. In this reciped, she uses sah leh (sand pears) and recommends substituting Bosc pears, but I have done this with Asian pears, specifically Hosui or Niitaka. The desirable characteristic is a hard, crisp fruit. This is a wonderful appetizer or amuse bouche … You can either pickle the pears whole, or for an appetizer, you can julienne them., Made these using Bosc pears would recommend quartering or slicing and rice vinegar. The sugar and vinegar are well balanced to make a tasty treat. We found they made a good snack, ie appetizer. May try putting some with either grilled meat or a salad., This is from Eileen Yin-Fei Lo’s The Chinese Kitchen, one of the finest classic Chinese cookbooks in English.
