Commonly referred to by their French name, “d' Anjou,” Anjou pears are the second-most recognizable pear variety in the United States. It’s the most abundant variety, which means you'll find Green Anjou pears on produce stands in the U.S. nearly year round.
Identifying Green Anjou Pears
Green Anjou pears are recognizable for their egg-shaped appearance, having a larger spherical lower portion that begins a gradual taper above the mid-point to a narrower rounded top. Their skin color is bright green, and sometimes has a soft red blush. Skin color shows only very subtle color change while ripening.
