Ingredients Method

Ingredients

  

.5x1x2x3x?

• ▢ 4 Pears peeled
• ▢ 1 bottle Bimbadgen Estate Shiraz
• ▢ 1 stick Cinnamon
• ▢ 3 Clove
• ▢ 2 Star anise
• ▢ 1 tsp grated Nutmeg
• ▢ ½ cup sugar

Method

 

1. ▢
   Place all ingredients into a pot and bring up the heat to a gentle simmer.
2. ▢
   The pears are cooked when you can just pierce them with a skewer with no resistance. This could take anywhere between 30mins and an hour and a half depending on the size of the pears or strength of your burner.
3. ▢
   Allow the pears to cool in the syrup as the spices will continue to develop flavour and the pears will absorb this.
