Pear braised in red wine
| Sydney 2 | Red wine 1 bottle |
| Orange 1 | Cinnamon sticks 2 roots |
| Star anise 2 pieces | White sugar 1 tablespoon |
Step 1
The ingredients are simple. For Sydney, gourd-shaped ones will be more beautiful. For red wine, use ordinary dry red wine, such as Cabernet Sauvignon. This time I used a sweet, lighter red wine, hoping it would be lighter in color, and it worked great!
Step 2
First peel the pears. It is best to cut straight, so that the texture will be smoother, and the surface will be beautiful when dyed with red wine. After peeling the pear, cut off a small piece from the bottom of the pear so that the pear can stand firmly.
Step 3
Peel off two pieces of orange peel 5 cm long and as wide as your fingers. This is just a description of the portion. If you peel smaller pieces, just peel two more slices.
Step 4
Pour a whole bottle of red wine into the pot. No need to hesitate, a whole bottle!
Step 5
Throw the orange peel in and squeeze the juice from the whole orange into the pot.
Step 6
Throw the cinnamon and star anise into the pot.
Step 7
Bring the juice to a boil over high heat and add the pears in it.
Step 8
Turn the heat to medium, or use medium to low heat if the fire is open, and cook for 20 minutes, turning the pears every 5 minutes so that the red wine juice is evenly infiltrated.
Step 9
This is what it looks like after the first 5 minutes.
Step 10
After 20 minutes, the color became much darker. Turn off the heat in the pot, stand the pears upright, and let cool. Once cool, cover and refrigerate overnight. When you have time in between, come over and pour the pears down to dye the juice, then stand them up again and continue to put them.
Step 11
Before dinner the next day, take out the pear and set it aside, take out the orange peel, cinnamon peel, etc., put the red wine mixture on the fire and bring to a boil over medium high heat, then turn to medium heat and cook for about 15 minutes.
Step 12
Until the juice turns into a slightly thick juice.
Step 13
Serve in cups.
Step 14
Place the pears on a white plate and pour the red wine and pears juice over them.
Step 15
Add a spoonful of vanilla ice cream, top with red wine and pear juice, and garnish with a little green leaves. The gorgeous dessert is ready.
Step 16
The red wine and pear juice is very delicious! , store the remaining juice in the refrigerator. In the future, it can be used in ice cream, cakes, muffins, etc. It is extremely delicious. Cooking tips for simmering Sydney pears in red wine
