Blonde Pears
INGREDIENTS
2 cups white wine
2 cups orange juice
½ cup Water
¾ cup honey I used organic honey
1 cup sugar
Vanilla bean (can substitute with a drizzle vanilla extract)
1 cinnamon stick
Star anise
2 cloves
½ orange
4 Bosc or golden pears
1 Lemon
1 tsp corn starch
1 tbsp butter
French vanilla ice cream to serve
METHOD
Place the stainless-steel inner pot inside the Instant Pot®. Press sauté and set time to 10 minutes. Add the white wine, orange juice, water, honey, sugar, cinnamon, star anise, vanilla, cloves, and orange. Mix and wait for it to boil.
Meanwhile, peel the pears and cut the bottoms a little so that they can stand up easily. Squeeze lemon juice over the pears to prevent browning. When the liquid begins to boil, add the pears.
Close and lock the Instant Pot® lid. Make sure the steam release handle is turned to Sealing. Press Pressure Cook, pressure level High, and set time to 10 Minutes. When done cooking, release steam, remove pears from pot and set aside (pears are done if a knife goes in easily, leave a little longer if necessary).
Strain the liquid and return to the pot. Press sauté for 25 Minutes. Let liquid reduce until a syrup forms. (I added 1 tsp corn starch dissolved in a bit of water). After 25 Minutes, turn off and add butter. Mix. (When the syrup cools, it thickens)
Serve the pears with the sauce on top and French vanilla ice cream on the side.
