I'm not a fan of pears, but I made this recipe for my wife and she loved it. I guess that means it's a good recipe.

Overall, this is a solid recipe for poached pears. With a few minor adjustments, it could be even better.

I found the sauce to be a bit too sweet. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

The pears were a bit too firm for my taste, but the sauce was delicious. I'll try poaching them for a little longer next time.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of ginger, but I'm so glad I did! The ginger was subtle and perfectly complemented the sweetness of the pears.

This poached pear dessert was a delightful treat! The pears were cooked to perfection, tender and juicy, and the white wine and ginger sauce was a perfect complement, adding a subtle sweetness and warmth. I served it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream
