CANNED HONEY SPICED PEARS

I found this recipe on the side of a flea market vintage box of Kerr caps and I've copied it word for word here. I haven't tried it yet, but it looks so good I wanted to make sure and save it. I can see these with vanilla ice cream in the summer or as a side dish to a savory roasted meat in the winter.

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 lb pears, halved, cored and peeled
1 c sugar
1 c honey
1 c vinegar, 5% acidity
1 c water
2 tsp whole allspice
1 tsp whole coriander
1 stick cinnamon, broken

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare jars and lids.
  • 2. Combine sugar, honey, vinegar and water in a large sauce pot. Tie spices together in a cheesecloth bag and place in sauce pot. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently to dissolve sugar. Reduce heat; cover; simmer ten minutes.
  • 3. Place pears in syrup and bring to a boil. Reduce heat. Cook pears until hot throughout, about 10 minutes.
  • 4. Remove spice bag. Pack pears into hot jars, leaving 1/2" headspace. Ladle syrup over jars leaving 1/2" headspace. Remove air bubbles using a nonmetallic spatula. Wipe jar rim clean. Place lid on jar with sealing compound next to glass. Screw band down evenly and firmly, just until a point of resistance is met - fingertip tight.
  • 5. Process 10 minutes in a boiling water canner. Yield: about five pint jars.
  • 6. Note: To prevent pears from browning, treat peeled pears with Fruit-Fresh Fruit Protector.

If you want your house to smell like fall, bake this pie! The spices and honey smell wonderful while baking. We could hardly wait to take that first bite! I loved the earthy spices and sweetness the honey added to the pie. The brown sugar crumble is crunchy and perfect with the sweet warm pears. If you'd like add some finely...
