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.

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), Simply Organic Cinnamon, Ground (2 Tbsp), Whole Clove (1 tsp), Rice Malt Syrup (4 Tbsp) 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.
