Poached Pears With Raspberry Sauce

Description:
Pretty and delicious! The poached pears and sauce should be made the night before. Serves 8

Ingredients:
8 ripe pears
6 to 8 cups of water
2 tablespoons of lemon joice
One cup of frozen raspberries
1/2 cup of orange juice
1/2 cup of confectionary sugar

Directions:
Peel the pears leaving the stem on top. Slice off a small section on the bottom of the pear so it will stand up. Put the pears in a large saucepan and cover with water and add the lemon juice. Bring to a boil and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove and set the pears in a glass baking dish. Cover them with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. To make the sauce, in a food processor or blender place the raspberries, orange juice and confectionary sugar. Blend. Refrigerate overnight in a small pitcher. In the morning, assemble each pear in a glass dish or ramekin, pour the raspberry sauce over and serve.
