This recipe is simple and delicious. The pears are served on their own, simply dressed with a few spoonfuls of the cooking liquid. The result is an incredibly tender fruit with delicate aromas of the cooking wine, honey and thyme.
Choose to use a more or less strong honey and wine depending on how prominent you want their flavors to be. We found the recipe was as enjoyable eaten warm or at room temperature and this makes a lovely light festive pudding.
