Poached Pears {with wine}

So originally when I made my first Pear Galette, I did a more traditional poached pear, just in a simple syrup with some vanilla. I figured I'd play with it a bit this time and added in some wine, cinnamon and cloves. I used ground cloves, but whole cloves would work just the same.

Poached Pears {with wine}

3-4 pears

600 g sugar

600 g water

3/4 cup white wine

1 cinnamon stick

1/4 teaspoon cloves {ground}

• Peel and core each pear.
• To a pot, add the remaining ingredients and stir until combined. Add the pears and cook over low heat, turning the pears consistently.
• Cook until the pears become translucent.
