Poached Pears Without Wine Recipe

Hot days in Indonesia are terrible. It rained every day, but only for a short time as if it only washed away the dust on the streets. The air temperature remains hot.

As if wanting to always eat fresh, I thought about fruit that was fresh and sweet. I have a supply of pears in the fridge.

After eating a refreshing pear, my husband came home from work. He said he wanted dessert. I also said yes to his request, while my husband immediately rushed to take a shower.

A New Idea For Me

Actually, I didn't know what to make when my husband said he wanted to have dessert. But all I was thinking about was pears at that time because I just ate pears.

So, I took out my phone and searched Pinterest apps for pear dessert ideas. To be honest, I have no idea about dessert from the ingredients of pears.

The first thing that appeared was Poached Pear. I'm looking for a moment. Well, that terrace would be a great idea. Easy to make with simple ingredients.

I will modify Poached Pear. From the recipes I've seen, usually Poached Pear uses wine. I'll replace the wine with a sweet sweet liquid.

We can't drink wine. This recipe is also suitable for those of you who might want to use a large stock of pears. But you can't drink wine. So, I hope my recipe can give you new ideas. Like I get new ideas when searching on Pinterest.

• 1/2 cup of chopped brown sugar
• 500 ml of water

How To Make It

First, I have to chop the brown sugar. My brown sugar stock is solid round. While chopping the brown sugar, I heated the water to a boil. After the water boils, add the chopped brown sugar until the brown sugar becomes liquid. Don't forget to add cinnamon.

---

Then, peel the pears. And put it in liquid brown sugar. Cook up to 30 minutes. Stir occasionally so that the liquid absorbs evenly.

PLATING

This is the most fun part. I like to put my mind to work thinking about the arrangement of various elements of food on a serving plate.

I've always been passionate about preparing food for my husband. So I always really present the best I can.

This time I'm serving a plant-based Poached Pear that I made a few days ago which I kept in the fridge. Don't worry, the cake is still delicious.

---

First, I made a spread of thick brown sugar sauce on a serving plate. I just make a random shape. I pulled the brown sugar sauce down but in a slight circular motion using the bar end of a spoon.

---

I cut the plant-based cake to form a circle with a mold that I adjusted to the size of a pear. The cake will be the basis for laying pears.

I placed the pears carefully on top of the cake. With the addition of a few red rose petals as a symbol of my love for my husband.

Also, a few small pieces of pandan cakes to add color contrast details. You can also add ice cream if you have stock at home. Or sprinkle of almonds / peanuts on top. It will be perfect.

Taaaaada! This is Poached Pear for my loved one. I smiled and my husband immediately appeared to enjoy it. I just feel satisfied. I don't know, sometimes happiness is just that simple. Watching the people I love eat my cooking. Even though the taste of my cooking may not be perfect, my husband still smiles while holding my hand. He thanked her with a smile. That always makes me feel strong and grateful to live this life.

Have a great weekend, beautiful people!
