poached pears
Wine-cooked dessert fruit
Poached pears are pears cooked gently in simmering liquid—typically wine, sugar syrup, or spiced water—until tender.
The slow cooking preserves the fruit's shape while infusing it with flavor.
A classic French dessert, often served with chocolate sauce or cream: The poached pears in red wine made an elegant finish to the meal.
