📝 Preparation Steps

Prepare a water bath canner, jars, and lids before you begin.

Wash, peel, and halve the pears. Core them using a melon baller. Keep pears in acidified water until ready to use.

In a large saucepan, prepare your desired syrup strength by combining sugar and water. Bring to a boil and stir until the sugar dissolves.

Drain the pears and add them to the syrup. Simmer gently for ⏱️ 5 minutes.

Pack hot pears into hot jars, cut side down, and ladle hot syrup over them to cover, leaving ½ inch headspace. De-bubble, wipe rims, and apply lids.

Process pints for ⏱️ 20 minutes and quarts for ⏱️ 25 minutes, adjusting for altitude (see notes).

Once processed, turn off the heat and let jars sit in the water for ⏱️ 5 minutes before removing.

Let cool 12 to ⏱️ 24 hours before checking seals and storing.
