Advice

For this recipe, we need small and perfectly ripe pears. Williams pears are the best. It is best to use organic lemons, whose peel is not treated with pesticides. If organic lemons are not available, immerse the lemon in boiling water for a few minutes and wipe it well to remove the wax, which contains toxins.
