Sirop de Liège
Flavor Profile
A Belgian type of apple butter that includes pears. Juicy, fragrant pears are perfectly matched with cozy apples in this sweet, well-balanced jam. Thick with hand-cut chunks of golden pears, these preserves are luscious served with pancakes or with hard and soft cheeses. A favorite of those who love the lingering, mellow, low acid sweetness of soft, ripe pears and crisp, sweet apples. With a rustic texture that’s like homemade, it’s delightful when added to baked goods, spread on muffins, or used as a topping for fluffy pancakes and waffles.
