Here's the recipe: 8 lbs. pears, whole 6 lbs. sugar 6 pint jars with bands and lids Peel and slice the pears into a large pot, discarding peels and cores. Pour the sugar over and let sit until there is enough juice to cook. Over medium heat cook until pears are transparent, oh, about an hour and a half, stirring often. Meanwhile, wash the jars, bands and lids. Sterilize the jars (let sit in boiling water for 5 minutes). Boil some water in a small pan, then turn off the heat and drop in the lids. When the pears are done, ladle into the jars and seal. yum, yum!
