Pome fruits (seed fruits)

In the Western World, pome fruits are the most popular by far. It is quite understandable because the countless varieties of pears and apples with thin and juicy flesh can be prepared in so many various ways. They can be eaten raw, cooked, dried or candied; they can be used to make jellies, butters, sauces, marmalades, compotes, pies…the list goes on and on!
