This week we speak to Damian Hendricks about the history of pears and the best way to store, cook and enjoy them. Cook along with me as I make an apple and pear buttermilk cobbler.
You can find this recipe and so much more at www.paddysmarkets.com.au - the ingredients you'll need for today's apple and pear buttermilk cobbler are:
