POACHED RED PEARS IN PORT WINE
Steps:
- Peel and core the pears. Place them in a saucepot with anise and Port wine. Bring to a boil and cook until the alcohol is burned off - be careful as the mixture may ignite. Once alcohol is burned off, drop heat to a simmer and add in the pears, making sure they are fully submerged. Pears should simmer for at least 35 to 40 minutes. Remove the pears once they are tender. Return the port to a simmer and cook until reduced by 3/4 and syrupy.
- In a small saucepan, place ginger root and 4 to 5 tablespoons of sugar. Cook until sugar caramelizes. Remove from the heat and place on a parchment lined sheet pan to cool.
- Melt chocolate over a double-boiler.
- Whip cream to stiff peaks. Sweeten with powdered sugar and a pinch of cinnamon. Set aside to chill.
- Use the reduced wine as a sauce or garnish. Once pears are done and tender, place on plate. Fill with chocolate and top with whipped cream. Garnish with candied ginger and drizzle with reduced wine. Serve warm.

- In a saucepan just large enough to hold pears lying on their sides bring 3 cups water to boil with gingerroot, sugar, Port, and lemon juice, stirring until sugar is dissolved.
- Peel pears, leaving stems intact, and cut a thin slice from bottom of each if necessary to enable pears to stand upright when served. Arrange pears on their sides in poaching liquid, adding enough of remaining water as necessary to just cover. Simmer pears, turning them occasionally, until tender, 20 to 40 minutes depending on ripeness. Carefully transfer pears with a slotted spoon to a bowl and boil poaching liquid until reduced to about 3/4 cup and slightly syrupy. Pour sauce over pears.

Steps:
- In a 2-qt saucepan combine the Port wine, water, sugar, cinnamon stick, cloves, star anise pod, orange zest and bay leaf and bring to a boil. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 5-6 minutes.
- Peel the pears and then carefully core them from the bottom, leaving the stem intact.
- Reduce the heat to a simmer and then slip the pears into the syrup. Cover and simmer until the pears are tender, basting them occasionally with the wine sauce. This will take about 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the pears and how ripe they are. At this point, a knife should slide into the pears with ease.
- Remove the pears from the sauce and set aside. Discard the spices and check the consistency of the syrup. If your syrup is still thin, reduce it over high heat until it is thickened enough to coat a the back of a wooden spoon. Remove from the heat and let it cool slightly.
- Pour the syrup over the pears, cover and refrigerate for a few hours or overnight. Let it sit at room temperature before serving.
- Arrange them on a shallow bowl and drizzle with their syrup.
- If desired, you can serve it with some whipped Mascarpone cheese on the side.

Steps:
- Pour the port into a large pan with 600ml water, add the sugar and cinnamon, then heat until the sugar dissolves. Add the pears, bring to the boil, then cover and simmer for 20-30 mins until tender all the way through. They are ready when a cocktail stick can be easily pushed through each one. Depending on the size of your pan, you may need to cook the pears in 2 batches using the same port syrup, or turn the pears several times as they cook so they become an even colour. Let the pears cool in their syrup, preferably overnight to allow the syrup to really stain them. Will keep for 3 days in the fridge.
- Check the consistency of the syrup. If it is very thin, boil it in a pan to reduce the amount and concentrate the flavour.
- To serve, whip the cream with the sugar and vanilla until it holds its shape, then fold in the meringue. Sprinkle with the cinnamon. Arrange the pears in a shallow dish and spoon over the syrup. Allow guests to help themselves to both pears and cream.

CRANBERRY-POACHED PEARS
Pears take on an eye-catching crimson cast when poached with vibrant cranberries. Their pleasing tartness can be countered by a sliver of rich goat cheese or a dollop of creme fraiche or yogurt.

Steps:
- Place pears in a saucepan large enough to hold them snugly. Add enough water to barely cover them (about 4 cups). Add sugar, cinnamon, citrus peels, honey, and lemon juice. Using the tip of a paring knife, scrape vanilla seeds into pan, and toss in pod. Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Reduce heat, and simmer gently until pears are tender, about 10 minutes.
- Add fresh cranberries, and simmer until cranberries are soft but not mushy, about 3 minutes more.
- Use a spoon to transfer pears to a dish. Spoon cranberries and syrup around pears. Add tea bag and dried cranberries if using. Let cool for 15 minutes. Cover, and refrigerate overnight.
- Before serving, remove vanilla bean, cinnamon stick, citrus peels, and tea bag. Transfer pears to plates with some of the cranberries, syrup, and a dollop of yogurt, creme fraiche, or cheese.

- Add port, peeled pears, orange juice, raisins, cloves, cinnamon stick, and vanilla bean to a medium sauce pot. Lightly stir to break up the ingredients, making sure the pears are at least half way submerged in the wine. Set stove to medium-low heat and simmer ingredients uncovered for 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes, turning the pears occasionally so they get evenly stained by the port on all sides.
- Take off the heat when the port sauce has reduced to about 1 inch or 1/2 an inch in the bottom of the pan (makes about 1/2 - 2/3 cup total of reduced port sauce). Transfer all ingredients to a bowl, cover when cooled and transfer to the fridge to chill for 2 hours - 48 hours, keeping the pears in submerged in the reduced port sauce.
- Before serving, remove cinnamon stick and cloves. Serve pears with reduced port drizzle sauce and rehydrated golden raisins. Can serve pears whole with stem still attached or halve the pears and remove the core with a mellon baller. Add optional dessert accompaniments, like ice cream.

- Peel the pear and cut it in half. Use a melon baller or a teaspoon to core the pear and then cut it into about 8 to 10 (⅛ to ¼-inch) slices per half. Add the pears to the port mixture in the saucepan.
- Turn on the broiler and drain the pears, saving the poaching liquid, and returning it to the saucepan. Gently place the poached pear slices on a baking sheet covered with foil. Sprinkle the pears with a thin coating of granulated sugar and place them under the broiler just until they begin to brown or char a tiny bit along the edges, about 2 minutes. (Every broiler is different, so check them every 30 seconds or so!) Alternately, you can use a kitchen blow torch to brown the sugar.
