Poached pears still reign as one of the easiest, most divine desserts that tastes as luscious as they look. What I love about poached pears is that the flavour base is really up to you – you can poach in juice or wine, and add any aromatics (flavours) you like, along with some sugar or honey to sweeten it up; just follow the ratio of liquid and sweetener below. For example, try orange juice and with honey and ginger. Serve with mascarpone, creme fraiche or greek yoghurt with vanilla mixed through,ice cream or coconut yoghurt for a great dairy free option.
