3 pears, ripe but firm, peeled 1/2 cup raw sugar 1 cup red wine 2 cups water 1 cinnamon stick 1 star anise Put in a soup pan the water, wine, sugar, cinnamon stick and anise star and bring it to a boil then add the pears. Add more water if needed, enough to cover the pears. Cover and simmer (approx. 20 minutes) until the pears are done. Remove the pears to a platter and let the sauce simmer, on medium heat, until reduced by half. Serve plain or with vegan vanilla ice cream.
