Ingredients
Squeeze and sift the grape to get a must without seeds and skins. Add the pears peeled and thinly sliced. Cook at low heat for at least 4 hours till you get a dense syrup. In the meantime crack and toast the hazelnuts in the oven. Crush them and add them to the sauce. Store in a glass jar in a cool place.
Preparation: 30 minutes
Cooking time: 4 hours
It’s perfect to accompany cheeses.
Ingredients (4 people)
Bring the Dolcetto to a boil with the cloves, cinnamon and 150 gr of sugar. Immerse the pears “Martine” (a type of pear) after cleaning and drying them and cook on high for 45 min with a lid on top. Take the lid of every once in a while to check on the amount of wine left: the latter has to cover the fruits completely. When done cooking, take the pears out of the casserole and put them on a serving tray. Filter the sauce created with a colander and spread over the fruits. If the sauce is too liquid, before filtering it, boil it alone for a while to condense it until it reaches the consistency of a syrup. Lastly sprinkle the sugar left over the pears. Serve cold.
Cooking time: 1 hour.
