  Quantities for people → Recalculate
  • 2 small pears
  • 1 large stick cinnamon
  • 2 cloves
  • granulated sugar
  • red wine
  • Recipe preparation steps

  • 1
    Place the pears in the smallest saucepan that can hold them comfortably. Add the cinnamon and cloves to the saucepan. Add a measured amount of water to the saucepan to just cover the pears. Add sugar to the sauce pan at the rate of 200 grams per 225 milliliters of water.
  • 2
    Place the saucepan over high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to simmer, cover the saucepan, and cook the pears until they are about half done. Pierce the pears with the point of a sharp knife to determine how much they are cooked.
  • 3
    Add about half as much red wine to the saucepan as there was water added in the beginning. Reduce the liquid to a simmer and continue cooking the pears, covered, until tender.
  • 4
    Remove the pears from the poaching liquid and set aside in individual serving bowls.
  • 5
    Increase the heat to high and boil the poaching liquid down to a syrup.
  • 6
    Spoon some of the hot syrup over pears and serve immediately.
  • Ready !
