I followed the recipe exactly and the pears came out hard and undercooked. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These pears were a bit too tart for my taste, but I think that's just a matter of personal preference. I might try adding a little more sugar to the poaching liquid next time.

I've made this recipe several times now, and it's always a hit. The pears are always perfectly tender and flavorful. I love serving them with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
