- The pears are poached then left for at least 24 hours to absorb the mulled Merlot
- Cooks straight from frozen
Try it with:
- It’s best warm, so try it with a cool scoop of ice cream
- Some crème fraiche or clotted cream works wonderfully, too
- Or, for the more traditional among you, try it with a proper vanilla custard
How We Make It At Our Kitchen
- We start by mulling the pears in a full-bodied Merlot red wine with cinnamon sticks and brown sugar.
- Meanwhile, we bake our spiced frangipane sponge with a few pears mixed in.
- Then the mulled pears are arranged over the frangipane, given a raspberry and port glaze and topped with chopped pistachios.
