Comment préparer Spiced Wine Poached Pears

Peel 4 ripe but firm pears. Place them in a medium bowl with 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and enough water to cover, preventing browning.
In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine 1 cup of water, 1 cup of granulated sugar, 2 star anise, 4 whole cloves, and 1 cinnamon stick.
Over medium heat, stir the sugar mixture until the sugar completely dissolves.
Add 1 cup of dry red wine, 1/2 cup of ruby port, 1 inch piece of fresh ginger (finely grated), and 2/3 of the zest of 1 orange.
Stir well to combine all ingredients.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat.
Carefully add the pears to the simmering liquid.
Place the lid slightly ajar on the pot to allow steam to escape. Simmer gently until the pears are tender when pierced with a toothpick (approximately 25-30 minutes). Turn pears occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Remove the pears from the poaching liquid using a slotted spoon. Transfer them to a plate, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
Strain the cooking liquid through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the spices and zest. Return the strained liquid to the saucepan.
(Optional) If not serving immediately, refrigerate the sauce for up to 1-2 days.
To reduce the sauce (optional), simmer over medium-low heat until it reaches your desired consistency. Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more sugar if needed.
Serve each poached pear drizzled with the spiced wine sauce. Garnish with the remaining orange zest, a sprig of fresh mint, and/or a few dark chocolate shavings.
