How can you tell when a Ya or a Yali pear is ripe?


With the more common pears like D'Anjou, Bosch, and Bartlett, you test them for ripeness by pressing the flesh near the stem to see if it gives. These Ya and Yali pears have been on my counter for days now and they're still hard. Is there a different test for ripeness or is it just going to take a while longer for them to ripen?
Thanks

Guess no one knows. No, it's not the color.

These pears stay hard even when ripe, and they seem to last forever.
Usually they can safely be kept for a week, depending on your ambient temperature, on your kitchen counter without spoiling.
They are always sold underripe, so wait a few days before eating them. They'll still be juicy and firm.

The color
