When you get right down to it you cannot beat a pear as a unique dessert when you peel them and marinate them in...
...some port...I got this bottle for my 40th birthday and decided ten years was long enough to age this baby...let them soak at room temp...turning them often...
Once they have turned dark from the port...plate some turbuno sugar and roll them...place them on a baking sheet and in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes or so...you will notice the sugar and port begin to turn to candy around the bottom...
...add some ice cream or plate them with fondue and Camembert cheese like I did!
