Time saving tip.
Poached pears can always be prepared ahead of time, on the weekend or the night before. Poaching is also a wonderful way to make the most of fruit before it spoils. ZERO WASTE is music to my ears! The poaching liquid should never be poured away as this is what you store your pears in until they are served.
