POACHED PEARS
The beauty of this dessert lies in its simplicity: pears poached in a cane sugar syrup, served cold with whipped cream and chocolate.
Ingredients
- 6 cups water
- 4 pears (firm) (peeled with stems still attached)
- 1/2 cup cane sugar
- 1 stick cinnamon
Instructions
- Pour the water into a large pan. Add cinnamon stick to the water with the sugar and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
- Add the pears and place a piece of parchment paper on the top to keep them submerged. Simmer gently for 20 minutes. Insert a sharp knife to test whether the pears are tender.
- When the pears are cooked, leave them to cool in the syrup.
- Garnish with vegan whipped cream and ganache (optional).
