These methods help preserve the natural sugars, flavor, and bioactive compounds present in the fruit. Once dried, the pear slices can be further processed by removing any remaining seeds or core fragments and, if desired, finely grinding into a powder. This powder retains the pear’s natural flavor and potential health benefits. The dried pear slices or pear powder are then packaged in airtight containers to prevent moisture absorption and maintain freshness, ensuring that the pears retain their quality, nutritional properties, and beneficial compounds from farm to table.
