We experimented with the "slow cooker": an ally that cooks for a long time, in a very delicate way, and without the need for control
Ingredients
- 8 pears Martin Sec
- Brown sugar
- star anise
- cinnamon
- lemon
- sweet red wine
- ice cream or cream to complete
Peeled the pears trying to keep their shape as best as possible (use a potato peeler) and keeping the stalk. Cut a small slice at the bottom so that they can stand upright.
Heat 1 glass of wine in a small saucepan with 30 g of sugar, 1 star of anise, a piece of cinnamon, the striped zest of 1 lemon. Cook it for about 3-4 minutes from boiling.
Fix the pears, standing up, in the slow cooker, add the wine and cook over low heat for 2 hours and 30 minutes. Halfway through cooking, sprinkle them with their sauce, in order to color and flavor them well. If you want to get a syrupy sauce, transfer the sauce into a saucepan and let it reduce on the heat.
Serve pears with ice cream or cream.
