Unlike many fruits, pears ripen off the tree, and they ripen from the inside out, so they may feel very firm on the surface even when soft inside. To test for ripeness, press just to one side of the stem end; if it gives, the pear is ripe. To ripen pears quickly, put them in a paper bag along with a banana. Check once a day to see how the ripening is progressing.
