Wine-Poached Pears with Ricotta Cream


This is another dish you'd expect to find at a five-star restaurant.  It takes a lot of time to (a) reduce the sauce and (b) poach the pears, but the payoff is worth it. The ricotta with pistachios is really just a garnish, but I can't imagine a better one.  Definitely a recipe to bring out when you want to impress someone - either guests or your special someone. 
Another hit from Farm Fresh To You - and they're still sending us pears.  Just saying.  ;-)
