Directions

  2. Transfer pears to a serving plate using a slotted spoon. Serve the pears warm or cold.

Recipe Note

A simple, but delicious recipe for poached pears in red wine. You only need a handful of ingredients. You can eat the pears as a dessert, warm or cold, but in the Netherlands we traditionally eat stewed pears as a side dish for Christmas. I prefer them cold.
