I see them as totally different fruits haha! lovely photos the pears sound delicious! I've never poached pears in red wine before, well because I don't buy red wine, but I love the sound of these pears (:Shu Hanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00248873228185558472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1304437690959603870.post-25935030230466067312011-08-01T14:08:22.190+08:002011-08-01T14:08:22.190+08:00Hi Terri - What an exquisite looking dessert. As u...Hi Terri - What an exquisite looking dessert. As usual - a 'winner' recipe from you. I can't wait to try it. I wonder if one can omit the wine and just poach the pears in some water plus rock sugar (to make it an chinese version - to help with sore throat etc.). Anyways - I must try this and will let you know how my attempt went. Btw - wanted to share a 'success' with you. As I have always said - you are the best and always provide me with 'fool-proof' recipes. A testament of that is your sesame soft rolls recipe. It was a huge success, so wonderfully cottony soft.... thanks a million :-)jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14070103094509515135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1304437690959603870.post-6324158133559481222011-08-01T13:52:45.628+08:002011-08-01T13:52:45.628+08:00hey.. where's the four seasons restaurant ah?hey.. where's the four seasons restaurant ah?Denise ^ ChickyEGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07844686280210928280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1304437690959603870.post-85592275059458770002011-08-01T13:51:38.731+08:002011-08-01T13:51:38.731+08:00terri, please delete the redundant post, my connec...terri, please delete the redundant post, my connection hung-up.the lunch guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10192794413494510496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1304437690959603870.post-87125380853753354102011-08-01T13:49:41.645+08:002011-08-01T13:49:41.645+08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.the lunch guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10192794413494510496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1304437690959603870.post-27899664164343094742011-08-01T13:49:23.675+08:002011-08-01T13:49:23.675+08:00an awesome classic that is so easy to make.
