Instructions
Prepare the Pears
Peel the pears, leaving the stems intact. Cut a small slice from the bottom of each pear so they can stand upright.
Poach the Pears
Bring the poaching liquid to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Carefully add the pears to the pot, ensuring they are submerged in the liquid. Cover and poach for about 20-25 minutes, or until the pears are tender.
Cool and Serve
Once tender, remove the pears from the pot and let them cool. You can serve them warm or chilled, drizzled with some of the poaching liquid.
