Steps:
- In a large saucepot, combine ice wine, balsamic vinegar, honey, cinnamon and cloves. Add pears. Bring to a boil and then lower and simmer until pears are tender, about 20 minutes. Remove pears with a slotted spoon.
- Let poaching liquid simmer until reduced to about 1/4 cup, with a thick and syrupy consistency. Melt butter in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add pears and sear until caramelized. Cut the parmigiano-reggiano into rustic chunks and arrange them on a platter. Transfer the caramelized pears to the platter next to the cheese.
- Drizzle everything with the reduced ice wine syrup.
BAKED FRESH PEARS
A recipe that is simply done, and cobines different ingredients to an excellent result. Found in "French Cooking in the New World" I use Moselle Valley Reisling; likewise its important that you use pure maple syrup, as corn syrup doesn't get it done!

Steps:
- With a small knife break parmigiano-reggiano into bite-size chunks and transfer to a plate. Drizzle cheese evenly with 1 1/2 teaspoons vinegar and let stand 15 minutes. Drizzle cheese with remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons vinegar.
Tips:
- Choose ripe, firm pears for this recipe. Avoid pears that are too soft or bruised.
- Use a good quality balsamic vinegar. A thick, aged balsamic vinegar will have a richer flavor.
- If you don't have Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, you can substitute another hard cheese, such as Parmesan or Asiago.
- To make the balsamic vinegar reduction, simmer the vinegar in a saucepan over low heat until it has reduced by half. This will take about 10-15 minutes.
- Serve the pears immediately after they are drizzled with the balsamic vinegar reduction. The cheese will melt slightly and the pears will be warm and juicy.
Conclusion:
Fresh pears with Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and balsamic vinegar is a simple but elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The pears are roasted until they are tender and slightly caramelized, and the cheese and balsamic vinegar add a touch of richness and acidity. This dish is sure to impress your guests!
