PEAR SORBET
A touch of sweet white wine and citrus makes this lovely pear sorbet so refreshing. You can use canned pears when fresh ones aren't available. And lime juice is a nice substitute for lemon.- Deirdre Cox, Kansas City, Missouri

PEAR SAUTEED WITH RED BEER, FRESH GINGER CAKE, AND RED BEERSORBET
Steps:
- Sauteed Pears: Peel, quarter, and core the pears. In a pot, place the honey, sugar, 2 tablespoons of butter, vanilla bean, and red beer, and cook. Add the pears and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, or until brown. Remove the pears when softened and reserve until needed. Add the cream and reduce the sauce by 1/2, remove the vanilla bean.
- Sorbet: Mix the red beer with the simple syrup. Mix well freeze according to manufacturer's instructions. Place in the freezer for at least 2 hours before serving.
- Place a piece of or an individual ginger cake on each of 4 plates. Fan the quartered pears and place 2 on each plate. Place a scoop of sorbet on each cake. Cover the pears and part of the cake with the beer sauce. Decorate with the vanilla bean and a ginger cookie. Serve.
GINGERED PEAR STRUDEL
Steps:
- In a saucepan large enough to hold all the pears snugly, combine the water, sugar, ginger root, and vanilla bean. Stir over low heat until the sugar has dissolved and then increase the heat so that the liquid is simmering. Add the pears and poach them for 15 to 20 minutes, turning occasionally so that they are evenly covered by the syrup. The pears should be tender enough so that they can be easily pierced with a toothpick, and the cooking time will depend on their ripeness. Let cool, and refrigerate.
- In a food processor, process the almonds and the sugar with an electric mixer until smooth and flatly ground. Do not overprocess.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter with an electric mixer until smooth and fluffy. Sift the almond powder and the flour over the top and combine to beat until smooth and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, mixing the first one in thoroughly before adding the second. Add the rum and mix in thoroughly.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and lightly oil a large baking sheet. Halve the poached pears and scoop out the cores. Slice each half pear thinly lengthwise and set aside, keeping together in their original shape. Unroll the phyllo and cut it into 4-inch wide stacks. Separate the leaves of pastry and lay one single strip on the counter. Brush it with melted butter, and continue until you have a stack of 6 strips, buttering each one. Repeat until you have 6 stacks of buttered phyllo strips. Using a spatula, spread a layer of almond cream 1/4-inch thick on the top layer of each phyllo stack. Slightly fan out a pear half on one end of each stack and roll the stack over about 1 1/2 times to form a flat strudel package. Brush the outside of the strudel with butter, and repeat with the remaining 5 pear halves and phyllo stacks. Transfer the strudels to the baking sheet. (at this point the strudels could be refrigerated for up to 12 hours before cooking)
- Bake the strudels for 10 to 15 minutes, or until golden and crispy. Cut them in half and place with cut sides up in the center of each of 6 dessert plates. Place a scoop of chocolate sorbet on the side and serve it at once

Steps:
- Place the sugar, measured water, and lemon juice into a saucepan and heat gently until the sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil, add the pears, and poach gently, basting occasionally with the sugar syrup, for 20 to 25 minutes, until the pears are tender. Cool, then puree in a food processor.
- Add the chopped ginger to the pear puree. Pour the pear mixture into a freezer container, and freeze for 2 hours, until just mushy. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and whisk gently to break down any large crystals.
- Beat the egg whites until stiff but not dry, then fold into the pear mixture. Return to the freezer and freeze until firm. Transfer the sorbet to the refrigerator to soften for about 30 minutes. Garnish with the strips of ginger. Serve and enjoy!
