I'm going for some pumpkin soup, stewed pears, and caramelized onions.

For lunch, well have some sausage, mashed potatoes with caramelized onions, and some stir fry veggies. Haven't decided on how to season this stir fry yet... Perhaps some balsamic and herbs to go with the topic.

Good night sweet spuds.

The only good thing about induction is it's raw power to boil shit. Its terrible for everything else.

You need 9 to 12 giese wildeman pears, or other variety with a firm flesh.
A bottle of red wine, preferably something a little on the stronger side.
Some spices. I like to use a cinnamon sticks, two star anise pieces and maybe 3 cloves.
Regarding sugar, this is highly variable. I like it with 50g, but I've seen recipes going all the way to 200g. 50g balances the wine acidity well to our taste here at home, and it goes well with the pear itself.

Then, you stew them for a long time in a pan until they are tender all the way through. I like them after 3 to 4 hours.

Serve with a splash of the red wine and a dash of cream for some extra richness, since this would otherwise be a fat free desert and we can't allow that.

These fuckers stay there for 4 hours. During this time, the pot will have a lid on, and I'll ocassionally move them around. Towards the end, I'll remove it so the liquid can reduce.

Personally I don't find any odd flavors with adding it at this stage. YMMV.

[What are you cooking today? No.14915767]

Don't they look pretty? I'll add some milk, butter, salt, pepper and some stilton blue cheese I have laying around. Might need to heat it up so that the cheese incorporates.

In about an hour. I'm afraid the stewed pears will have to wait until later in the night.

Onions are coming along. What should I use to stir fry the veggies? Perhaps just balsamic, garlic and sugar?... Could add some fresh chives too.

[What are you cooking today? No.14915969]

Stir fry veggies with garlic and yakisoba sauce.

[What are you cooking today? No.14915974]

>Blue cheese
I like it, but it seems like it would make the potatoes taste really weird.

Hey, thanks! Unfortunately I am not dutch. Just enjoying the place!

>>14916097
It tastes faintly like it only if you know what to look for. These cheeses aren't too tough on the blue flavour.

>>14916089
