they never seem to store as well as apples do, so thought i'd try bottling some this season.
Recipe (for 8 pears, 2x 1pint kilner jars)
If you followed my blackberry cordial receipt earlier, and made some blackberry wine then you'll have the two main additions.
300ml of neat blackberry cordial/syrup
300ml of blackberry wine
depending on how tightly you pack your pears you may not need all the liqour but make a little extra incase.
tea-spoon of chopped preserved stem ginger (the sweet sticky sugar'd stuff)
boil these together whilst you peel, quarter, and core the pears
place the pear quarters in the sterilised jars
pour over the boiling liquor
seal them
for a longer keep, place in a ban-marie, or large saucepan, and bring the sealed jars to the boil for a few minutes. then let them cool.
