Ingredients 

  • 3 quartered Bosc pears peeled cored and
  • 8 ounces pomegranate juice (I used POM 100%)
  • ¼ cup evaporated cane sugar

Instructions

  • Put the 3 quartered Bosc pears, 8 ounces pomegranate juice and ¼ cup evaporated cane sugar in a pot making sure the pears are completely covered (add more juice and sugar if need be). Bring the mixture to a boil and turn down the heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Cover with a lid set ajar and cook for 20 minutes or until the pears are a deep crimson and they are firm but no longer crunchy.
  • Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, yogurt, or by themselves, doused in the poaching liquid.
