I make this compote every year, and I alternate between making it with white and red wine.

Make sure it simmers gently and do not let it come to a full boil.
This compote is delicious in tarts or baked snacks (it keeps for 1 week)
If you use whole pears, simmer them for about 1.5 hours Recipe by Cookie shiasu

Steps

1

Peel the pears and cut in half lengthwise. Remove the core by scooping it out with a teaspoon.
2

Put the white wine, granulated sugar, and water into a pot and bring to a boil to melt the sugar and boil off the alcohol. Then add the pears, making sure they are covered by the liquid.
3

Now add the lemon juice and vanilla bean and cover with parchment paper. Simmer over low heat for 40 minutes - 1 hour, ladling the liquid over the top from time to time.
4

After it cools off, leave the pears in the liquid and put them into the refrigerator to chill. The compote is delicious paired with vanilla ice cream or fresh cream.
5

I used Bartlett pears.
6

Lemon slices can sometimes create a bitter flavor, so I made a change to the recipe to use lemon juice instead.
