Time 5h15m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

12 pears Approximately
1/2 bottle dry red wine
6 tablespoons sugar
Dash cinnamon
1/2 pint heavy cream, lightly whipped

Steps:

  • Peel and core the pears but leave stems intact.
  • Put pears in a heavy casserole large enough to hold them comfortably, stems up. Pour in the wine and enough water to cover the pears. Add the sugar and cinnamon.
  • Simmer, uncovered, for about 5 hours, or until the liquid has reduced to a glaze. If the syrup is too liquid but the pears are cooked, remove them to a serving dish. Boil the liquid down until it is thick enough to coat the spoon. Pour over the pears and allow them to cool at room temperature.
  • Serve the cream separately.
