Varietal characteristics<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Madernassa pear is a variety typical of Piedmont that takes its name from the small village of Madernassa, in the municipality of Vezza d’Alba, a few kilometres from the city of Alba, in the heart of the Langhe and at the gateway to the Roero. It is here, near the Prunotto Mariangela farm, that this variety has found the ideal conditions to thrive.
\nThe Madernassa mother plant, grown at the Gavello farm, was cut down in 1914, when it had already reached an age of about 130 years, with a trunk circumference of 2.60 metres and a productivity of over 25 quintals. This cultivar is believed to derive from a natural cross between the Martin Sec variety and a wild pear tree, from which it inherited its robustness and rusticity.
\nMadernassa is very present in the gastronomic tradition of Roero, especially during the autumn and winter months. The tree is vigorous, resistant and very fertile, although older plants may be subject to alternating production. It blooms in mid-early season and has the peculiarity of being a parthenocarpic variety, meaning it is capable of producing fruit even without seeds. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Madernassa pear compote without sucrose sugar is a product that enhances the unique characteristics of this variety typical of Piedmont. To produce 100 grams of jam, 135 grams of juicy fresh pears are used, resulting in a product that is ideal for enjoying on toast with mountain butter, for a rich and refined breakfast or snack. Our compote is made without added sucrose, but with alternative, natural ingredients to enhance its original sweetness.
\nIt can be enjoyed on its own as a healthy snack or spread on slices of wholemeal bread for a light and nutritious breakfast. It pairs perfectly with mature cheeses such as gorgonzola or pecorino, creating an interesting contrast between sweet and savoury. It is also ideal as a condiment for roast pork or to accompany game dishes, where the natural sweetness of the pear balances the strong flavours of the meat. Finally, it is perfect for enriching yoghurt or for preparing refined desserts such as tarts or crumbles.4 <\/p>\n

It is a Piedmontese delicacy and is suitable for those who do not like or cannot eat sugar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":8017,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[753,852],"product_tag":[848],"class_list":{"0":"post-10756","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-fruit-preserves","7":"product_cat-without-sucrose-sugar","8":"product_tag-pear","10":"first","11":"instock","12":"shipping-taxable","13":"purchasable","14":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
