Gestoofde Peren
Stewed Pears
Gestoofde Peren are tender, spiced pears that are slowly simmered in red wine or fruit juice until they are soft and have absorbed the aromatic flavors of cinnamon, cloves, and sometimes star anise. They are a popular dessert or side dish, especially during the autumn and winter months, often served with vanilla ice cream or as an accompaniment to savory dishes like game or stoofvlees (stewed meat).
