Campari-Poached Pears with Raspberry Sauce image

Categories     Fruit     Dessert     Poach     Valentine's Day     Currant     Raspberry     Orange     Pear     Winter     Bon Appétit

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups cranberry-raspberry juice drink
1 1/4 cups sugar
1/2 cup Campari
3 3 x 1-inch strips orange peel (orange part only)
6 Bosc pears (each about 7 ounces)
1 lemon, cut in half
1 10-ounce package frozen raspberries in syrup, thawed
4 tablespoons orange liqueur
2 tablespoons red currant jelly
1 cup mascarpone cheese (about 8 ounces)
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
Fresh mint leaves

Steps:

  • Combine 2 cups cranberry-raspberry juice drink, 1 1/4 cups sugar, 1/2 cup Campari and orange peel strips in heavy large saucepan. Bring to boil, stirring until sugar dissolves. Cover and reduce heat to very low, keeping poaching liquid hot.
  • Peel pears, leaving stems attached. Rub pears all over with cut lemon halves. Using melon baller, remove cores through wide end of pears, then cut thin slice off wide ends so that pears can stand upright. Add pears to poaching liquid. Simmer uncovered over medium-low heat until pears are tender, turning occasionally, about 20 minutes. Cool pears in poaching liquid. Refrigerate until cold, at least 6 hours.
  • Puree raspberries with their syrup, 2 tablespoons orange liqueur and currant jelly in blender. Strain raspberry sauce through fine sieve. Chill until cold, about 1 hour. (Pears and raspberry sauce can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover separately and keep refrigerated.)
  • Whisk mascarpone, 2 tablespoons powdered sugar and remaining 2 tablespoons orange liqueur in bowl to blend.
  • Spoon some raspberry sauce onto plates. Stand pears upright in center of sauce. Spoon dollops of mascarpone mixture alongside. Garnish with mint leaves and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, firm pears. Overripe pears will be too soft and mushy, while underripe pears will be too hard and tart.
  • Peel and core the pears before poaching them. This will help the poaching liquid penetrate the pears and flavor them evenly.
  • Use a variety of spices in the poaching liquid. This will add depth and complexity to the flavor of the pears.
  • Poach the pears until they are tender but still hold their shape. Overcooked pears will be mushy and bland.
  • Make the raspberry sauce while the pears are poaching. This will give the sauce time to develop its flavor.
  • Serve the pears warm or cold, with a dollop of raspberry sauce. You can also top the pears with whipped cream or ice cream.

Conclusion:

These pears with raspberry sauce are a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The pears are poached in a flavorful liquid until they are tender and juicy, and the raspberry sauce is the perfect complement to the sweet and slightly tart pears. This dessert is sure to impress your guests, and it is also easy to make.
