Poached Pear Lab

Recently I had to do a lab with poaching pears. In this lab I simmered pomegranate juice with some spices and sugar. When the juice was simmering I put the pears in the juice. The pears sat in the juice for 15 minutes before I took them out and sliced them for plating. To go with the poached pears I added a spoonful of vanilla ice cream!
