     Title: Poached Pears w/Orange Cream
Categories: Fruits, Citrus, Wine, Dairy
     Yield: 2 Pears

     2    Firm medium pears
 1 1/2 c  Water
     1 c  Dry red wine
   1/2 c  Sugar
     2 ts Vanilla extract
   1/4 c  Sour cream
     2 ts Confectioners' sugar
   1/2 ts Grated orange zest
   1/8 ts Orange extract
          Additional grated orange
          - zest; opt

 Core pears from bottom, leaving stems intact. Peel
 pears; cut 1/4" from bottom to level if necessary.
 Place pears on their sides in a large saucepan. Add
 water, wine, sugar and vanilla. Bring to a boil. Reduce
 heat; simmer, covered, turning once, until pears are
 almost tender, 35-40 minutes. (For more intense flavor
 and color, leave fruit in cooking liquid and refrigerate
 overnight.)

 Meanwhile, combine sour cream, confectioners' sugar,
 orange zest and extract. Refrigerate until serving.

 Remove pears with a slotted spoon; pat dry and, if warm,
 cool to room temperature. Discard cooking liquid. Place
 pears on dessert plates. Serve with orange cream; if
 desired, top with additional grated orange zest.

... I'm pining for a good tree pun. I wish they were more poplar.
