Categories     dessert

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

6 medium-size pears, not too ripe
4 tablespoons sugar
1/3 stick sweet butter
1 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Peel pears and cut in half lengthwise. Remove cores. Place pear halves flat side down in single layer in 1 or 2 large baking or gratin dishes. Sprinkle sugar over pears and dot with butter.
  • Place in oven and bake 35 minutes. By this time sugar should have caramelized and pears should be tender when pierced with point of knife. If pears are not tender continue cooking 5 to 10 minutes. Pour cream over pears and return to oven. Bake 10 to 15 minutes more, basting every 5 minutes with cream.
  • Cream should have reduced and thickened and turned nice ivory color. If sauce seems to be separating, add a tablespoon or two of hot water.
  • Remove pears from oven, allow to cool slightly. Serve directly from baking dish.

Time 16m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 flour tortilla
1 pear
1 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon butter
1 teaspoon sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees Farenheit. Put about 1Tbsp. butter on a sheet pan (I lined the sheet pan with nonstick aluminum foil first-worked great!). Put pan in preheated oven and melt butter. Thinly slice a pear that you've cored. Take pan with melted butter out of oven, put tortilla on butter, then flip over so bottom is greased. Put sliced pear on the tortilla, dot about a teaspoon butter on pear in little bits, sprinkle a little sugar on pear. Bake in preheated oven for about 10 minutes, until the pear is cooked through and the tortilla is lightly browned around the edges. Remove from oven, cut into wedges and enjoy while still warm.

This chutney has a great balance of sweet, savory, sour and fragrant flavors, and is really good with holiday meals. Lasts for weeks in the refrigerator. For best taste, prepare it a few days ahead. From the book, Jacques Pepin Celebrates, 2001. Make sure to have a large jar ready for storing the chutney after cooking.
