Zubereitung von Poached Pears With Chocolate Pear Sauce
- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine 1 cup pear nectar, 1/2 cup white wine, and 1/2 cup granulated sugar.
- Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Gently add 4 ripe but firm pears (peeled, cored, and halved) to the simmering syrup.
- Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the pears are tender but still hold their shape. (Cooking time will depend on pear ripeness.)
- Using a slotted spoon, carefully transfer the poached pears to plates.
- Increase heat to medium-high and boil the poaching liquid until reduced to 3/4 cup (approximately 8-10 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in 4 ounces of good quality dark chocolate (chopped).
- Whisk until the chocolate is completely melted and the sauce is smooth and glossy.
- Place a warm pear half on each plate.
- Drizzle generously with the warm chocolate pear sauce.
- Serve immediately. Alternatively, cover the pears and sauce separately and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Rewarm the sauce gently before serving cold pears.
