Steps:
- In a saucepan large enough to hold all the pears, combine the wine, Simple Syrup, cinnamon stick halves, honey, and ginger. Scrape in the seeds from the vanilla bean and add the bean and seeds to the saucepan. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally, until the honey has melted. Add the pears and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the pears are tender. Remove the pears from the liquid and allow to cool.
- Continue to simmer the liquid until it thickens and is reduced by half, about 15 to 20 minutes. Cool to room temperature. Remove the cinnamon stick halves and the vanilla bean and discard.
- Place each pear on a small serving plate with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Drizzle with the honey, ginger and cinnamon syrup. Serve immediately.
- In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and water over medium heat. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved. Remove the pan from the heat and allow the syrup to cool.

Steps:
- To prepare pears, place 6 cups of the cold water in a bowl. Squeeze the juice from 1/2 lemon into the bowl and add the lemon too. Core the pears from the bottom and peel, leaving the stems intact. As you peel each pear, place it in the bowl to prevent it from discoloring. Also place the cores and small pieces in the bowl. After the pears are peeled, wrap the cores and small pieces in the cheesecloth, folded double, and tie tightly with string. Place the remaining 7 cups of cold water and the honey in a pot and stir to dissolve the honey. Add the tangerine peel, raisins, lemon balm and cheesecloth bundle, together with the pears. Cover the pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Lower the heat and poach the pears at a low boil for 1 1/2 hours, leaving the lid ajar. Touch the pears with the tip of a chopstick. A properly poached pear should give a little; the pears should be soft and have taken on a light beige color. Turn off the heat. Remove the lemon balm, tangerine peel, and cheesecloth bundle from the pot and discard. Transfer each pear to an individual soup plate, sitting it upright, stem up. Divide the sweet soup equally among the plates. There should be about 4 1/2 cups of soup. Divide the raisins equally as well. Garnish each pear by inserting a sprig of mint into it at the stem and serve.
HONEY-POACHED PEARS WITH BROWN SUGAR CREAM (#7)
From my long-lost treasure trove of recipes recently found, but orig found on the net at a source I cannot now recall. Poached pears have long been a favorite dessert choice for me, esp for a dinner party when I want an elegant dessert as the finale of a hearty meal. Many others feel the same & there are many choices here on RZ, but this one is new to me & appealing w/the use of the optional brandy. (Time does not include time for syrup to cool & refrigeration of pears overnight) Enjoy!

PEARS POACHED IN BEAUMES-DE-VENISE AND HONEY
Steps:
- Combine the Muscat, water and honey in a large noncorroding saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Meanwhile, peel the pears neatly with a vegetable peeler, keeping the stem but removing the blossom end. Drop each pear into the simmering liquid as you peel it. Lay a piece of parchment paper directly on the pears to keep them moist.
- Lower heat so that the liquid is just under a simmer. Cook until the pears are barely tender when tested with a knife in the blossom-end side, about 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the pears.
- Remove the pears and cool in a container in a single layer. Increase heat and simmer the cooking liquid until reduced to about three quarters of its original volume, about 20 minutes. Cool separately from the pears. When pears and syrup are both cool, combine and refrigerate until cold, preferably overnight. Serve with creme fraiche and crisp cookies.

Steps:
- To make the creme anglaise, rinse the inside of a non aluminum saucepan with water and shake out the excess.
- Pour in the milk and place over medium-low heat until bubbles form around the edges of the pan, about 5 minutes.
- In a small bowl, combine the whole eggs, egg yolk, and sugar; whisk just until blended.
- Gradually whisk in half of the hot milk, then pour the egg mixture back into the pan.
- Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring constantly, until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, leaving a clear trail when your finger is drawn through it, 6 to 8 minutes.
- Stir in the vanilla.
- Cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly on the surface to prevent a skin from forming, and let cool.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or for up to 2 days.
- Julienne the zest from the lemon and set aside (reserve the lemon for the juice).
- With an apple corer or a small, sharp knife, carefully core each pear from the bottom.
- Trim the bottoms so they stand upright.
- Leaving the stems intact, peel the pears.
- In a large non aluminum stockpot, combine the pomegranate juice, brown sugar, lemon zest, juice from the reserved lemon and cinnamon stick.
- Bring to boil over high heat, then reduce heat to simmer.
- Place pears on their sides in the liquid and cook, uncovered, for 10 to 15 minutes.
- In the meantime, seed the pomegranates by cutting them in half (careful, the juice can stain).
- Fill a large bowl with cool water.
- Holding the cut fruit under the water, peel back the skin and membrane to release the seeds, allowing them to sink to the bottom of the bowl.
- Discard peels and membrane; drain and reserve the seeds.
- Carefully turn the pears over and cook until a small knife can be inserted easily into the bottom of the pear, 10 or 15 minutes longer.
- Once the pears are done, remove them from the cooking liquid and stand upright on individual serving plates.
- Remove and discard the cinnamon stick.
- Pour about 2 cups of the poaching liquid into a small saucepan; simmer over medium-low heat until reduced by half, about 10 minutes.
- Mix orange liqueur and cornstarch together in a small bowl.
- Gradually whisk the orange liqueur mixture into the reduced poaching liquid; reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring until the sauce thickens to a glaze, about 10 minutes.
- Pour a little of the glaze over each pear, then spread some of the creme anglaise around the bottoms of each one.
- Sprinkle with pomegranate seeds and garnish with a mint sprig.
- Serve the remaining glaze alongside.
