    Pears in Red Wine Sauce,Adopted from Steam It, the way nature intended cookbook. My girlfriend is an excellent cook. She cooks all types of ethnic foods, specializing in italian, indian, and homegrown. She does not like to bake but found this cookbook and is such a happy camper. Steaming foods is so much better for us but I never knew to steam desserts such as these. This is a to die for delectable dessert for 1, 2, or company. It is elegant on theplate and such a simple prep, it belies the end product. Please enjoy. cooking time does not include chill time, times overlap with prep I gave myself an hour and was good with that and had time to prep other things for dinner while waiting.,Great pears- this recipe would be the perfect make ahead recipe for a dinner party. Sorry that I didn’t get a photo. Made for December 2011 Recipe Swap in the Aus/NZ Forum,Superb! used a nice robust shiraz that I thought balanced the sweetness well. I was a bit concerned that my combination of steamer and bowl left one side of the pears not covered with wine during steaming, but just turned a few times while refrigerating and it didn’t turn out to be an issue and the end-result had a nice even color.
