Poached Pears

[mermaidnchains]

I have an abundance of pears waiting for use. I was thinking of poaching some of them, but most of the liquids I find listed for poaching are alcohol based. Im pregnant, and simply dont have any in the house.

What do you guys think of poaching them in honey and balsamic?

I havent gotten beyond the 'should I poach or not poach' stage, but I thought if they turned out ok, I might make a tart with them and some blackberry's I have frozen.

Suggestions, ideas, mouth watering photos all welcome. :)

Thanks in advance - I would hate to see these lovelys go to waste.
