Dessert of burgundy pears
If you don’t have burgundy, a sweet red wine will do just fine. You can also turn the poaching liquid into a thicker sauce to drizzle over when serving. If you use food coloring, use it very little by little until you get the color you want. This is a vibrant cuisine with many variations. The combination of kirsch and cherries adds a lot of sweetness with the spice of the pears. Serve with cream or ice cream and a fresh cherry, drizzled with sauce.
If you enjoy preparing sophisticated cocktail dishes, our burgundy pear dessert is a great way to end your evening’s feast.
