From Chef FulvioDe Santa of the restaurant Peck, Milan
6 large, firm pears, washed thoroughly
I cup dry Marsala wine—we use sherry in a pinch
1 cup sugar—we use less
2/3 cup water

Preheat the oven to 325. Stand the unpeeled pears in a large baking dish. Pour the wine over the pears, sprinkle them with the sugar, then pour the water into the dish and put in the cinnamon stick. Bake for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, until the pears are soft, basting every 20 minutes.
Serve warm or cold, with the sauce poured over. Serves 6

Oh...and Asta...a small (but hilarious) residual side effect from Lacie's illness...
SHE CAN CLEAR A ROOM....IN AN INSTANT. And it's RANK...TOTALLY!
No wonder she doesn't have a date to the pre viewin' of Beagledoon....and is hangin' on to Mango man for dear life!!!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAA....
Not sittin' by Lacie barks...

Yum, That looks scrumptious. Almost as delicioso as those daffy dills.
It's raining here too -- the first time in weeks -- but that means th grass will turn green again and the flowers won't be so sad.

Well it is bright, sunny and warm here, but we still want some of those pears. They look delicious for sure!!
Hey Asta sweetie. I'm loving your new header. Did you pick those flowers in Central Park?. Fab visit with Auntie Sherry, hope she comes to olde London Town some day. Little Eric saw the Brit shop. From the things in the window he recommends the Twiglets. Yummm, but not with pears. How is Daddy? I'm sorry he's not been feline good. he looks very well in the St Patrick's day photo too. Great slides Asta and I did smile.
Wiry wags love and kissies, Eric xx xxxxx

Pears. Pears. Yummy. Yummy. Asta, we did not know that your company specialiized in angst.Should have known though, cuz you're always so full of happiness that you'd have to pass it on to cheer others up or you'd burst!

Those roasty pears sounds so tasty! My girl is retarded in the kitchen, so it will be a miracle if they turn out, but we might have her try them.
I would really love to see video of you helping your mommi paint like mad. Bet it's wild!
Goober love & smooches,
Stanley the FB
Sweet Asta, my BFF!!
I hope my girl can do the pears. They look and sound loverly!
See, when I hear you are painting like mad, I think of you and your mommi running around the house like crazy girls tossing paint everywhere, rolling in it, then smooshing it around until it looks like you want it to on every surface it hits... especially the canvas! Maybe I could paint wif you sometime?
Goobery love & sweet kissies,
Stella Bean
Looks like a great recipe! thanks for sharing and have a wonderful weekend!
Those looks so pretty and tasty and perfectly gluten free for my mom!
We will make them and let you know how they turn out!
The pear recipe sounds pawsome Asta, thanks for sharing. We are glad you get to partake in the enjoyment of the leftovers!
Wags,
Benson and Gibson
YUM!
Dallas is getting warmer now but I'll still demand my mom trying your delicious baked pear recipe!
Asta, this is what I think of you and your blog: FOOD, fun, family, friends, famous...
Hmmm, can't think no more, my brain is full of baked pear right now but I haven't finished yet, I'll think harder, muahhh!
Those pears sound yummy. It is always good to have a few new recipes.
And it's healthy because it's made with pears.
We haven't tried this before but a couple of times pinky stuffed pears with chocolate then wrapped filo pastry around them and baked them in the oven. It was a bit fussy but tasted nice...so they said.
