Zubereitung von Poached Red Pear Zinfandel
- Core pears from the bottom, leaving the stem intact. Using a paring knife, carefully peel a thin spiral channel from top to bottom of each pear for visual appeal.
- Slice a very thin piece off the bottom of each pear to create a stable base for standing upright.
- Place pears upright in a large saucepan.
- Pour in the Zinfandel wine and add the vanilla extract.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until pears are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Carefully remove the pears using a slotted spoon and place them in four individual dessert dishes.
- Add the sugar substitute (or sugar) to the remaining liquid in the saucepan.
- Bring the liquid to a boil over medium heat.
- Reduce heat to low, and simmer uncovered for 12 minutes, or until the liquid is reduced to about ⅔ cup and has thickened into a light sauce.
- Spoon the Zinfandel reduction sauce over the poached pears.
- Drizzle each pear with honey.
- Garnish each dessert with fresh mint leaves, if desired.
- Serve warm or chilled.
