Steps:
- Make a bouquet garni by enclosing the clovers, ginger, cinnamon stocks and allspice berries in a piece of cheesecloth tied together with a piece of string. Tie the string to the handle of a large saucepan.
- Combine the boueguet garni, sugar and water in the saucepan and bring the syrup to a boil. When the sugar is dissolved, lower the heat and add the Asian pear pices. Coer the pan and simmer the pears for about 40-45 minutes. They will still offer slight resistance when pierced with a knife.
- Stir in the cranberries and turn up the heat so that the cranberries will cook and begin to pop, stirring frequently; this should take about 8 - 10 minutes. When the cranberries have cooked, remove the pan from the heat and cool. Remove the bouquet garni from the compote. Add the vinegar and ginger and taste for seasoning. The suace will firm up as it cools. Refrigerate until serving time. Taste for seasoning just before serving.
- Can be made 5 days a head, covered and refrigerated. Taste before serving. You may need to add a bit more vinegar.
Tips:
- Use ripe and firm pears for the compote. This will ensure that they hold their shape and don't become mushy.
- Peel and core the pears before cooking them. This will make them easier to eat and will also help the flavors of the compote to penetrate the fruit.
- Add a variety of spices to the compote to give it a complex flavor. Ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves are all good choices.
- Use fresh cranberries in the compote. Frozen cranberries can also be used, but they will not have as much flavor.
- Cook the compote over low heat until the pears are tender and the cranberries have burst. This will take about 30 minutes.
- Serve the compote warm or cold. It can be served on its own or over pancakes, waffles, or ice cream.
