Red Wine Poached Pears (really yummy)
1 lemon
1 orange
1 bottle red wine (recommended: Shiraz/Syrah or Zinfandel)
8 cups water
1/2 cup honey
1 (1-inch) piece fresh ginger, sliced
1/2 teaspoon black peppercorns
1/2 teaspoon cloves
4 cardamom seeds
2 star anise
1 bay leaf
6 Bartlett pears, peeled
Creamy Pistachio Nut Filling, recipe follows
Special equipment: a wide saucepot, parchment paper, a parisienne scoop/small melon baller, a piping bag
Juice the lemon and orange, reserving the juiced citrus halves!. Put the juice, citrus halves, wine, water, honey, ginger, black peppercorns, cloves, cardamom, star anise and bay leaf in a wide saucepot!. Gently place the pears into the liquid!. Make a circle of parchment paper that is 1/2-inch larger than the pot and cover surface completely with the parchment paper (see Cook's Note*)!. Make sure the pears are fully submerged but not touching the bottom of the pot!. Bring the poaching liquid and pears to a boil, then reduce the heat to just below a simmer!.
Cook the pears until fork tender!. Test for doneness by inserting a sharp knife in the base; there should be little resistance when fully cooked!. Gently transfer pears to a glass or ceramic bowl!. Pour enough poaching liquid over pears just to cover!. Cover and refrigerate for several hours, preferably overnight; the longer the pears soak, the darker they will become!.
Strain remaining poaching liquid and return to saucepan!. Cook over high heat until a syrupy consistency is achieved or the syrup coats the back of a spoon!. Chill until the pears are served!.
Use a parisienne scoop to remove each pear's core, hollowing out a 1-inch wide cavity that starts at the base and extends 3/4 of the way up the pear!. Transfer the Creamy Pistachio Nut Filling to a piping bag without a tip!. Gently fill the pear cavity until it slightly overflows!. (The overflow will help to provide a sticky surface to stand the pear up on!.) Place the pear, base side down, in a bowl and surround with 1-ounce of the syrup!. Serve!.
Cook's Note: *Make sure the poaching liquid is kept below a simmer so that the delicate pears don't fall apart from the agitation of the liquid!.
Creamy Pistachio Nut Filling:
1 1/2 cups mascarpone cheese
3 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup pistachios, coarsely chopped
In a medium-sized bowl, cream the mascarpone, sugar, and vanilla together!. Stir in the pistachio nuts!.
Use immediately or refrigerate and return to room temperature before filling the pears!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Crustless Almond and Pear Tart
6 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
1 1/4 cups whole blanched almonds (6 oz!.)
2/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, divided
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon ground mace
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons pear eau de vie (if you have it or Amaretto for a little more almond flavor or leave it out and add a little extra milk instead)
1/4 cup milk
1/2 tsp vanilla
2 large ripe, but firm, pears - preferably bartlett or anjou
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees!. Generously grease a 9 1/2 inch fluted tart pan or baking dish!. Melt 5 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan over low heat until melted!. Remove from heat, let cool to room temperature - set aside until needed!. Cut remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons butter into small pieces - set aside until needed!.
In a food processor fitted with the metal blade, combine the almonds and 2/3 cup sugar and process, pulsing on and off, until finely ground!. Be careful not to process too long or it will form a paste!. Transfer the ground almonds to a large bowl and stir in the flour, spices and salt until blended!.
In a small bowl, combine eggs, eau de vie, milk, vanilla and reserved melted butter and mix well!. Add the egg mixture to the almond mixture and mix thoroughly!. Pour the batter into the prepared dish and spread to form an even layer!.
Peel, quarter and core the pears!. Using a sharp knife, cut each pear quarter into crossways slices 1/8 inch thick, keeping the slices assembled as you go!. One quarter at a time, slide the sliced pear onto a metal spatula or spreader and set it on top of the batter with the smaller end of the pear in the center!. Repeat with the remaining sliced pear quarters forming the spokes of a wheel!. Press the surface of the fanned pears down into the batter so that only the surface of the pears is showing!.
Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar evenly over the pears and scatter the cut up butter bits over the top!. Bake the tart in the upper third of the oven until the batter is puffed and golden brown, 40-45 minutes!. Let the tart cool on a rack!. Serve warm or at room temperature

Coffee glazed Pears(so good the next day!) or pears in red wine cooked em both I like the coffee best but loved both!
Red wine
4 fairly large Bartlett pears, peeled, quartered, and seeded (1 1/2 pounds)
1 1/2 cups good, strong red wine (not sweet)
1/3 cup sugar
Peel of 1 lemon
Juice of 1 lemon (about 1/3 cup)
Combine the pears in a pot with the rest of the ingredients!. Bring to a boil, cover, and boil the mixture gently about 25 minutes—less if the pears are very ripe, more if they are hard!. You should have approximately 2/3 cup of syrup left; if the pears have rendered a lot of liquid, you may have more!.
Transfer the pears to a bowl!. Reduce the syrup to about 2/3 cup, then combine it with the pears!. Cool!. The liquid should get syrupy!.
