This recipe is a great way to use up leftover pears. I always have a few pears in my fridge, and this is a great way to use them up before they go bad.

This recipe is not worth the effort. The pears were not very flavorful and the poaching liquid was bland.

The poaching liquid was too sweet for my taste. I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

These pears were a bit too tart for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. I'll try using a different type of pear next time.

These pears were absolutely delicious! The peppered port poaching liquid gave them a lovely flavor that was both sweet and savory. I served them with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkling of chopped pistachios, and they were the perfect dessert.
