Poached Pears in Honey, Ginger and Cinnamon Syrup Recipe ... image

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories     dessert

Total Time 1 hours 20 minutes

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 40 minutes

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

One 750-ml bottle Moscato wine or other sweet dessert wine
2 cups Simple Syrup, recipe follows
1 cinnamon stick, broken in 1/2
2 tablespoons honey
One 3/4-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled, and finely chopped
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
6 small, firm, ripe Anjou pears, peeled
Serving suggestion: Vanilla ice cream or gelato
2 cups sugar
2 cups water

Steps:

  • In a saucepan large enough to hold all the pears, combine the wine, Simple Syrup, cinnamon stick halves, honey, and ginger. Scrape in the seeds from the vanilla bean and add the bean and seeds to the saucepan. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally, until the honey has melted. Add the pears and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the pears are tender. Remove the pears from the liquid and allow to cool.
  • Continue to simmer the liquid until it thickens and is reduced by half, about 15 to 20 minutes. Cool to room temperature. Remove the cinnamon stick halves and the vanilla bean and discard.
  • Place each pear on a small serving plate with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Drizzle with the honey, ginger and cinnamon syrup. Serve immediately.
  • In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and water over medium heat. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved. Remove the pan from the heat and allow the syrup to cool.

ALMOND CAKE RECIPE - NYT COOKING



Almond Cake Recipe - NYT Cooking image

This moist and fragrant cake from Molly Wizenberg, the author of the popular food blog Orangette, calls for a whole orange and lemon, almonds and olive oil. It does require a little effort and the use of some equipment – a food processor and a mixer – but the ingredient list is short, and once you've boiled and puréed the citrus and ground the almonds, the whole thing comes together in a snap. It's excellent on its own, but we also like it with poached pears or grilled figs.

Provided by Mark Bittman and Sam Sifton

Total Time 2 hours 15 minutes

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 small to medium orange
1 lemon
6 ounces raw almonds
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
4 eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups sugar
2/3 cup olive oil
Confectioners’ sugar

Steps:

  • Place the orange and the lemon in a saucepan, and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Drain and cool.
  • Heat the oven to 325 degrees, and set a rack in the middle position. Bake the almonds 10 to 15 minutes. Set aside to cool completely. When the almonds are cool, pulse them in a food processor until ground.
  • Set oven to 350 degrees, and grease a 9-inch springform pan.
  • When the citrus is cool, cut the lemon in half, and discard the pulp and seeds. Cut the orange in half, and discard seeds. Put the fruits in the food processor and process almost to a paste.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the flour and baking powder. Combine eggs and salt. Beat until foamy. Beat in the sugar. Fold in the flour mixture. Add the citrus, almonds and olive oil, and beat on low speed until incorporated. Pour the batter into the pan, and bake for about 1 hour. Let cool for 10 minutes, unmold and dust with confectioners’ sugar.
