💡 Conseils de pro
- ✓If you cannot find orangeat and citronnat, you can substitute with candied orange or lemon peel along with a little almond paste.
- ✓The juicier your pears, the more liquid will be released during baking. Adjust the amount of white wine accordingly.
- ✓Walnut oil can be substituted with other nut oils or a neutral oil like canola or sunflower oil.
