• Pour wine into pan with the pears. Next, add the sugar.
• Put burner on to medium high heat and bring to a simmer, then add the lid.

POACHED PEARS IN WHITE WINE AND GINGER SAUCE

• Cool pears in poaching liquid. When cooled, set pears aside. Bring poaching liquid to boil and reduce to approximately Z cup. Remove ginger and reserve. Discard lemon rind.

POACHED PEARS WITH GINGER

Steps:

• Bring all the ingredients except the pears to a simmer over medium-high heat in a large saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, peel the pears and cut them in half lengthwise. Use a small spoon or melon baller to scoop out the core and seeds from each half, leaving the stems intact. Trim the fibrous strip from the center with a paring knife. Gently lower the pears into the pot. If they are not completely covered by liquid, lay a piece of parchment paper directly on the pears.
• Cook until a paring knife slides easily into the pears, meeting slight resistance, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat; let cool in liquid 30 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the pears to a large bowl; cover with parchment paper. Cook the liquid over medium heat until syrupy, about 15 minutes; discard the vanilla pod and ginger. Let cool. Serve 2 pear halves in each bowl; spoon the syrup over the pears.
