Steps:
- Put the sugar, vinegar, orange zest and juice, ginger, bay leaves and peppercorns in a large pan. Bring slowly to the boil, stirring constantly to dissolve the sugar, then boil for 5 mins.
- Meanwhile, peel, core and halve or quarter the pears, depending on size. Add the pears to the pan and poach gently for 10-15 mins until they are just tender. Remove with a slotted spoon and pack into warm sterilised Kilner jars with rubber seals (see tip below).
- Boil the vinegar mixture hard to reduce by a third, then pour over the pears, including the spices. The pears need to be completely covered with the liquid. Fit the rubber seal and clamp the jar tightly closed. Reserve any leftover syrup for topping up the jars later, as the pears will absorb the syrup over time. Store for up to 2 months.

Steps:
- Use a saucepan that has a cover and is large enough to hold the pears upright in a single layer.
- Place the water, sugar, rind, and juice in the saucepan and stir over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture comes to a boil; stir in the ginger and set aside.
- With a vegetable peeler, peel the pears; if necessary, trim the bottoms a bit so they will stand upright.
- Place the pears in the syrup, cover, and cook over medium heat; baste the pears frequently (a ladle is handy for this since the ginger might get stuck in a bulb baster).
- Do not over cook; test with a cake tester or toothpick; when they pierce easily they are done; start testing after 20 minutes.
- When the pears are just tender, transfer them with a slotted spoon to a shallow bowl.
- Add the marmalade to the syrup and let boil for 5 minutes.
- Then add in the cognac, and pour the hot sauce over the pears.
- With a ladle or large spoon baste occasionally until cool; cover and refrigerate.
- Serve each pear standing upright in a compote or dessert bowl, with several spoonfuls of the syrup.

- Peel the pears and cut them in half lengthwise. Scoop out the cores with a teaspoon. Make sure you cut away the hard remains of the flower at the bottom of the pear. Arrange the pears in a circle inside the pan, cut sides up, thin ends towards the center.
- Mix the sugar, ginger root and water together in a pan. Bring to a boil. When the sugar has dissolved, pour the liquid and ginger slices over the pears.
- Bring the pears to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cover the pan, turn the heat down to low, and gently poach until the pears are tender, about half an hour. Paste the pears with the syrup from time to time. About 15 minutes into the cooking, flip the pears over, cut sides down, for even cooking. Check the liquid for sweetness. Add sugar to taste, plus a little more water if the pears look dry. The syrup should be light, not thick and sticky.
- When the pears are just tender, turn the heat off and, leaving the lid on, let the pears cool in the pan. They will continue cooking and give out more of their juices as they steam.
