I LOVE pears! I love them raw, in salads, on a cheese board and don't even get me started on pear sorbet!! This salted caramel sauce recipe is also versatile with endless possibilities! This dish is a combination of two very simple recipes, but the combo is seriously heaven.

Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
Use a vegetable peeler to create 4-6 strips of orange rind from the Orange (1).
step 2
Pour boiling Water (8 cups) into a large pot. Add the Cinnamon Sticks (3), Star Anise (2), Ground Cinnamon (2 Tbsp), Whole Clove (1 tsp), Rice Malt Syrup (1/4 cup) or honey and orange rinds.

step 3
Peel the Brown Beurré Bosc Pears (10) and pop them in the pot. I like to leave some whole and cut some in half, then use a melon baller to take out the core of the halved pears.

step 4
Bring the pears back up to a simmer. At this point, if you stir the spiced water, you might find it is a bit slimy. Don't freak out, it sometimes does this. If it is worrying you, add some extra boiling water and it should thin out.
