recipe reviews for:

Poached Orange Pears

“These pears are very simple to prepare, but so elegant, assures Edna Lee of Greeley, Colorado. I love to serve them when fresh raspberries are in season. They make a beautiful presentation for special occasions and are always well liked by both young and old. TIP: I've occasionally used home-canned pear halves and no one ever knows the difference, Edna says.”

I left out the berries since I did not have any on hand, but I will try them next time. I served the pears over those little shortcakes and topped off with a little cream. Very easy and elegant.

This was amazing. Great dessert which was quick and easy to make and will WOW your guests by the presentation (looks like you would get it in a 5 star restaurant). I added 1 cup of white wine to the sauce and served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. YUM!

Very tasty. Very simple. Nice light dessert. I didn't have cinnamon sticks, so I substituted ground cinnamon and it was fine.

We are innsitting for some friends and served this as the fruit appetizer at the Royal Folly B&B in Annapolis. We served 2 halves to each person with a scoop of mascrapone cheese (which had toasted pecans and maple syrup blended in) in the center of each. Reduced the liquid quite a bit, drizzled it on the plate sprinkled with more toasted pecans and a few raspberries. Awesome! Everyone ate every drop!

These were delicious and very easy to make. They would also be very tasty with the pears served warm alongside a small scoop of good quality vanilla ice cream!
