Poached Pears
2 pears, peeled
2 cups of red wine
1/2 cup of sugar
1/2 cup of orange juice
1/2 vanilla bean
2 cinnamon sticks
1 teaspoon of ground cloves
In a saucepan, cook over low heat, wine, sugar, orange juice, vanilla, cinnamon & cloves. Bring to a simmer. Cut the pears in half vertically, and core them, removing the seeds and stems. Cook the pears on low in the liquid for 5-10 minutes on each side. Turn them off and leave them in the liquid until you're ready to serve. To serve, heat the liquid and the pears for 5 minutes until they are warm.
