- Choose a variety of pears. Different varieties of pears have different flavors and textures, so using a mix will create a more interesting salad.
- Slice the pears thinly. This will help them absorb the dressing and make them easier to eat.
- Use a light and flavorful dressing. A simple vinaigrette or honey mustard dressing is a good option.
- Add some nuts or seeds for crunch. Walnuts, pecans, almonds, and sunflower seeds are all good choices.
