POACHED PEARS
A wondeful recipe by Donna Hay. Lovely for those cold winters nights. Any firm pears can be used Williams or Packham pears, but you may need to adjust the cooking time as they may take a little longer.

[email protected]I thought the poaching liquid was a little bland. I think next time I'll add a little bit of vanilla extract or almond extract to give it more flavor.

[email protected]The pears took a lot longer to poach than the recipe said. I had to leave them on the stove for almost an hour before they were tender.

[email protected]The poaching liquid was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think next time I'll use less sugar or I'll add a little bit of lemon juice to balance out the sweetness.

[email protected]I had a hard time finding the right type of pears for this recipe. I ended up using Bartlett pears, and they were okay, but I think they would have been better with a different variety.
