Directions
Anise Pears,Aniseed is used widely in Chinese cooking, both entrees and in desserts, adding a sweet, licorice-like flavor to foods. Any variety of firm, ripe pears can be used in this refreshing dish, but you may have to adjust the cooking time according to the texture and ripeness of the pears.,What a great and easy dessert to make. used 3 Packham pears (though left all the other ingredients as per a four recipe) and they were a little firm so took 30 minutes to cook to tender stage and also gave them a stir every now and then to bring the pieces in the bottom of the pan up to the top so there was an even cooking of the pears.
