POACHED PEARS WITH PEPPER AND BAY LEAF
Steps:
- Peel pears, cut in half vertically and remove cores. Place pears in bowl with juice of one-half lemon and enough water to cover. Set aside.
- Place remaining lemon juice in large, heavy saucepan with wine, sugar, water, peppercorns and bayleaf. Bring to boil, lower heat and simmer 20 minutes.
- Drain pears and add them. Simmer 10 to 15 minutes, until just tender. Transfer pears to bowl with slotted spoon; be sure to drain well.
- Boil down cooking liquid until about three-quarters cup, 10 minutes or so. Remove from heat, discard bay leaf; stir in eau de vie. Pour over pears; serve at room temperature.
