Dishes
Frozen PearFrozen pear, primarily made from autumn pear or flower-covered pear, is created through repeated freezing and thawing. First, wash the pears and place them in the freezer until they turn black. Then, remove them and thaw by soaking in cold water. Once a layer of ice forms on the surface of the pear, peel it off and suck out the juice to enjoy.
