Pears in Barolo is a traditional Italian dessert. The pears are cooked in Barolo wine, which gives them an intense and rich flavor. The wine perfectly complements the sweetness of the pears, creating a delightful contrast. This dessert is typically served during autumn and winter when pears are in season. It is an elegant and refined dish that can be paired with a Barolo wine for a complete gastronomic experience.
In a saucepan, bring the wine to a boil with the sugar and cinnamon
Let it simmer for a few minutes, then add the peeled pears with the stem intact and let them cook over very low heat for about half an hour
Remove the pears from the heat and let them cool, then make vertical cuts in the pears and fan them out on a serving plate or in a bowl, drizzling them with the cooking wine
Serve with small meringues if desired
