How to make it
- Combine pears and water in a large Dutch Oven.
- Cover and cook over medium-low
- heat 40 minutes or until pears are soft, stirring occasionally.
- Drain.
- Press pears through a sieve or food mill, measure 1 quart of puree.
- Combine 1 quart puree with remaining ingredients in a Dutch Oven. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, for 15 minutes or until mixture thickens.
