Peel the pears, leaving the stems intact. Cut a small slice from the bottom of each pear so they can stand upright.

Prepare the Pears

In a large pot, combine water, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon stick, vanilla extract, and star anise. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.

Make the Poaching Liquid

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.

Poach the Pears

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.
