Harvest Fruit Salad

Pears predate Christianity by 2000 years. The early wild pears were bitter and almost inedible, so grafting methods were introduced to produce more palatable fruits. Since then, some 6,000 varieties have been named in Europe and America alone. For this salad, the Bartlett, Red Bartlett, Anjou, Seckel or Comice is recommended. Among the grape variety possibilities are Flame, Ruby, Ribier and Thompson. Garnish each serving with thin slices of apple and pear.
