Ingredients

  • 1/3 c. rock sugar (available at Asian markets)
  • 1/2 c. pineapple juice
  • 12 x thin slices ginger
  • 3 x star anise
  • 1 x cinnamon stick
  • 3 x Asian pears Juice of 1 lemon
  • 3 Tbsp. unsalted butter, melted

Directions

  1. Heat grill. While waiting, combine rock sugar, pineapple juice, ginger, star anise and cinnamon stick in a saucepan and heat over high heat till sugar dissolves and liquid begins to boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium-low and boil gently for 2 min. Remove from heat and let cold.
  2. Peel pears, slice each one in half and remove cores. Place in a bowl and add in lemon juice. Toss gently, then add in butter.
  3. Put a fine-mesh/grill rack on top of regular rack. Place pears on it over medium heat and grill, turning frequently to prevent burning, till slightly charred, 6 to 7 min. Transfer to a bowl, add in syrup and mix well. Cover and let sit 20 min before serving. For best results, chill overnight.
  4. Bring to room temperature before serving.
