I love to hear the excitement in your voice when you are about to try the food. It is so contagious and makes me want to start cooking right away lol

[DesiredAstrum]

I made this recipe around Christmas for a couple friends and myself. I served it with whipped cream. We were all speechless because it was one of the most delicious desserts any of us have ever had. Thank you, Stephane!

[maynardtipton]

Incredible, I love Pears just by themselves I can imagine what this is going to be like thank you very much well done

[bertieb]

Thanks. Nice recipe. I like the idea of adding a bit of Creme de Cassis. Never thought of that, I'll give it a try next time. Personally I don't think you reduced the Beaujolais sufficiently to a syrup. Would have gone a bit further myself.
The problem I usually have with this recipe here where I live is finding the right type of pear and sufficiently ripe ones. I always end up having to poach them far longer than 20 minutes. I suggest cooks should be prepared to cook them to the right doneness and not be bound by the time.

That's made me want to try it again, properly this time... thanks! I thought your garnish was little pieces of Roquefort, then it wasn't and I thought, 'of course not!' But then, I thought.. 'Why not?'. I'll call back if it works!

[lisaseda]

Was about throw away my pears but I got a good solution!! Very happy. Delicious

My father who taught me to cook used to make these and for presentation he would pipe whip cream around the base of the pear and then make a sugar crystal dome over the pear for show. Thank you for the recipe it brings back many memories.

Hi, it's me again. I made the Crepes the other day and these wonderful pears too! They are fantastic and SO
I didn't have Creme de Cassis but I did have some blackberry syrup I made and used that instead and it's a deep, deep wine color. So beautiful! Thank you again!

[flordelotus]

I've been waiting for this recipe for so long :)) Thank you sooo much!

[skepticalmom]

I flavor mine with cinnamon, cloves and allspice. I adore poached pears. I make my wine syrup and cook the pears sous vide.
