Description
A few simple steps and about 15 minutes gets you perfectly poached pears that look complicated and professional.
Ingredients
- 3 cups Water
- 1 cup Sugar
- 2 whole Hands (root With Several Fingers) Of Ginger, Sliced
- 1 Lemon, Zested
- 1 pinch Salt
- 4 whole Bosc Pears
- ½ cups Crumbled Gorgonzola Cheese
- ½ cups Toasted, Chopped Walnuts
- 3 cups Water
- 1 cup Sugar
- 2 whole Hands (root With Several Fingers) Of Ginger, Sliced
- 1 Lemon, Zested
- 1 pinch Salt
- 4 whole Bosc Pears
- ½ cups Crumbled Gorgonzola Cheese
- ½ cups Toasted, Chopped Walnuts
Preparation
Add the water, sugar, ginger, lemon zest and salt to a large pot and bring to boil. Peel the pears and add them into the liquid. Reduce the heat to medium so that the pears are simmering gently, not boiling. Cook for approximately 15 minutes. I inserted a toothpick into the widest part of the pear and tested until it went in easily.
Remove the pears with a slotted spoon and set them aside. Raise the heat and reduce the poaching liquid for another 15 minutes or until it’s reduced by half.
Place one pear on each serving plate. Spoon a bit of the reduced liquid over each and divide the cheese and nuts equally over each. Serve at room temperature either as an appetizer or as a cheese course after dinner.
