Pears in Barolo are a traditional Italian dessert. The pears are cooked in Barolo wine, which gives them an intense, rich flavor. The wine combines perfectly with the sweetness of the pears, creating a delightful contrast. This dessert is typically served in 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 on and cook over very low heat for about half an hour
Remove the pears from the heat and let them cool, then make a vertical cut in each pear and fan them open; place them on a serving plate or in a bowl and drizzle them with the cooking wine
If you like, serve with small meringues
