This fall, Iโm following the pears ๐
Sometimes the inspiration for a season starts at the market. This time it was a crate of organic pears so beautiful I just stood there looking at them. Golden, fragrant, perfectly ripe โ the kind of fruit that tells you exactly what it wants to become.
So I brought them home, and Iโve decided: this autumn, pears are leading the way in my kitchen.
Expect tender pears tucked into buttery almond cream, warm spices, flaky pastry, and a few things Iโve been dreaming about for a while. Simple, honest baking that lets good fruit speak for itself.
In Poland we say gruszki โ and to me, they taste like home in October.
๐ถ The song in the background is โJesieniฤ
โ (โIn Autumnโ) by sanah with the Mazowsze folk choir, set to a poem by Maria Konopnicka, one of Polandโs beloved poets. It sings of orchards blushing in autumn, red apples and golden pears glowing like stars among the leaves. I couldnโt think of a better soundtrack. Stay close, more is coming soon. ๐
