INSTRUCTIONS
In a medium non-reactive sauce pot, combine the red wine, sugar, black
peppercorns, cinnamon stick, and cloves. Stir to dissolve the sugar. Bring
to a boil and carefully place pears into the liquid. Reduce the heat to a
simmer and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the pears are tender when a
knife is inserted. Remove the pears and let cool. Turn the heat up and
reduce the poaching liquid until 1 cup remains, and then set aside to cool.
When cool, place pears into serving bowls, drizzle with the red wine syrup,
top with a dollop of whipped cream, a sprig of mint, and sprinkle on some
powdered sugar. This recipe yields 4 servings.
