Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 750-ml bottle dry red wine
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
6 2x1-inch strips lemon peel (yellow part only)
1 1/2 teaspoons aniseed
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
6 firm but ripe Bosc pears
1 1/2 cups nonfat vanilla frozen yogurt

Steps:

  • Strain cooking liquid; discard solids. Return cooking liquid to pot. Boil until reduced to 1 cup, about 12 minutes. Pour syrup over pears. Chill until pears are cold, at least 3 hours or overnight. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Keep refrigerated.)
  • Scoop frozen yogurt onto plates. Place pears on plates. Spoon sauce over pears.
