Searching for some dried pears (which is harder than you might think) one afternoon, I wandered into Trader Joe’s. It was the 5th place that I looked and it felt like a dream when I found them. However, my pear pleasure was overwhelmed when I found, directly below the pears, dried fuji apples. Chunks of semi-sec apple squares clouded the packaging. I had to buy them.
My impulse was right—the gooey bites are fantastic. I ate a few on the train ride home as a snack; I added them to ginger cookies. In the morning, I sliced them into oatmeal. They would be great on a cheese platter if quince paste weren’t your cup of tea. Head to T.J’s asap to pick up a few packs—the chain has been known to supply a limited amount of their most coveted items, and this one is sure to be.
