Tuna with garnish of pears and garlic dressing Pear is a very popular and famous fruit tree on the ground, the fruits of which are used in cooking in a variety of dishes. Interestingly, despite the sweetness of the pear, more often it is not desserts that are prepared from it, but unsweetened dishes: sauces, side dishes, salads, snacks. Most often the pear becomes a side dish to meat or a baked, or stewed bird - a duck, a goose, a turkey. But with the fish it is served rarely, and in vain. You will be convinced of this if you cook with our recipe tuna with pears. Here, fish and garnish are prepared separately, whereas with meat or poultry the pear is most often baked or stewed together, absorbing the excreted meat juice. Our tuna with pears is a delicious dish, to which it is desirable to serve crisp bread and white wine. An unusual combination of different flavors on one plate is not just surprising, but it also delights the true gourmets. It's unlikely that any of your guests will stay away from dipping the bread crumb into a gorgeous orange sauce or garlic butter. Do not judge them strictly: this is a wonderful dish and your efforts are worth it so that the plates after dinner are clean.
