Cómo preparar Vanilla Cider Poached Pears
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Halve 4 ripe but firm pears lengthwise and core them using a melon baller or small spoon.
- Place pears in a single layer in a medium saucepan.
- Pour in 2 cups of apple cider.
- Add 1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise and seeds scraped (reserve pod for garnish if desired).
- Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and poach for 20-25 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the thickest part of the pear meets with little resistance.
- Remove pears from cider and let cool slightly.
- While pears cool, prepare candied orange peel: Thinly peel 1 orange avoiding the white pith. Cut peels into thin strips.
- Melt 2 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate in a double boiler or microwave (low heat).
- Add orange peel strips to melted chocolate, stirring gently to coat.
- Arrange candied peel on a parchment-lined baking sheet to dry.
- Once the chocolate has set, serve each poached pear in a bowl with a drizzle of fresh orange juice and a sprinkle of candied orange peel.
