This poaching technique in honey works very well for making syrups or honeys and pairing with delicate fruits.

Remove the skin from the pears, leaving the stem intact. Starting from the bottom of the pear and using a corer, remove the core from each pear, stopping 3 cm from the stem. Cut a small slice off the base so they can stand up. In an Express Pressure Cooker®, place the wine, sugar, lemon peel, cinnamon, and cloves. Mix to dissolve the sugar and add the pears, arranging them in the center of the pot. If the pears are not covered by the wine, add enough water to cover them. Close the Express Pressure Cooker® and place the pressure regulator on it, put it on the stove over high heat for about 25 minutes or until a constant steam comes out, lower the flame to medium and cook for 5 minutes. Remove the Express Pressure Cooker® from the fire, let cool, remove the pressure regulator, open the Express Pressure Cooker® and you're done! Check that the pears are soft by piercing them. Remove with a slotted spoon and let cool to room temperature. Put the wine mixture back over high heat and let it reduce until you obtain 3/4 cup and the mixture acquires the consistency of thick honey. The pears should be served at room temperature and the syrup should be reheated before serving.
