Zubereitung von Orange Liqueur Pears
- Peel the pears, leaving stems intact. Trim the base so they stand upright.
- Using a teaspoon, gently remove a portion of the core from the bottom of each pear to allow the syrup to penetrate.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the orange juice, water, sugar, orange zest, and white wine.
- Over medium-low heat, stir until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Add the pears to the saucepan. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the pears are tender but still hold their shape. Baste the pears with the syrup occasionally.
- Carefully remove the pears from the saucepan and set aside. Increase the heat to medium-high and continue to simmer the syrup, uncovered, until it reduces and thickens to a syrupy consistency (about 10-15 minutes).
- Pour the reduced syrup over the pears and allow them to cool completely.
- Once cooled, stir in the orange liqueur.
- Remove the orange zest before serving. Serve the pears chilled, spooning some of the delicious syrup over each pear.
