Steps:
- Combine wine, water, sugar, cinnamon, peppercorns, honey, and vanilla bean in a large saucepan. Squeeze in lemon juice, using a strainer to catch seeds, and toss in one of the halves. Bring to a boil, lower heat, and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, peel pears carefully, leaving stems intact. Place in hot poaching liquid and cover with a lid slightly smaller than the pot to keep pears submerged.
- Turn heat down to a bare simmer and poach pears for 20 to 30 minutes, or until tender (if the pears are not ripe, it could take up to an hour). Turn pears halfway through cooking time. Let cool slightly, then transfer pears to a bowl. Simmer poaching liquid until reduced by half
- Cut figs in half and add to liquid cut side down. Keep heat at a simmer, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. (If using dried figs, poach until tender, 15 to 20 minutes.)
- Carefully transfer figs cut side down to the bowl with the pears, and pour poaching liquid over all. Let cool and chill at least 4 hours, or overnight.
- With a slotted spoon, remove fruit from liquid and place 1 pear and 2 fig halves on each plate. Reduce poaching liquid over medium heat until thick enough to coat a spoon. Serve hot or cold with the fruit. Accompany with a few cookies, whipped cream, or a sweet dessert cheese.
POACHED PEARS IN RED WINE
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Fill a bowl with cold water and add all but 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice.
- Peel, halve, and core each pear.
- Place them in the bowl of lemon water to rest; the lemon juice will help prevent browning.
- Combine the red wine, sugar, the reserved 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and cinnamon in a medium saucepan large enough to hold the pears.
- Bring to a boil, then turn the heat down to reach a low simmer. Add the pears and simmer for 10 to 12 minutes on one side.
- Rotate the pears and continue to poach them for an additional 8 to 10 minutes, or until they are tender and are easily poked through with a fork.
- Remove the pears from the pan and cool them on a cooling rack or old, clean towel.
- Bring the wine sauce back up to a rolling simmer and cook until the liquid has been reduced by half.
- To serve, place one pear into a shallow bowl. Pour a stream of sauce over the fruit.
- Place one scoop of ice cream, mascarpone cheese, or crème fraiche next to the pear (if using). Serve and enjoy.

- Prepare a grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the hot coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only to medium-high heat.

- Remove the saucepot from the heat and add the red wine vinegar. Discard the star anise. Let cool slightly.

- (Alternatively, you can poach the fruit over medium-high heat on a stovetop.)

PEARS POACHED IN RED WINE AND CASSIS
A classic French dessert with liqueur that adds a deep berry essence. Wine-poached pears make fora classic French dessert. I like to add a little crème de cassis liqueur to the wine, along with honey, vanilla and cinnamon. The cassis, made from black currants,adds a deep berry essence to the syrupy wine. You can serve these pears warm or chilled. The poached pears will keep well for a couple of days in the refrigerator. The pears will continue to soften.
