-------- ------------ --------------------------------

4 medium pears

3 cups water

2 tablespoon lemon juice

1 cup fresh raspberries

6 ounces unsweetened pineapple juice

1 tablespoon cornstarch

3 Tbsp. sugar (or alternative)

 

Peel and core pears; leave stems intact. Cut thin slice off the bottom so pear

will stand upright. In large saucepan, combine water and lemon juice; bring to a

boil. Add whole pears. Cover and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes or until pears are

tender. Transfer pears and cooking liquid to medium-sized mixing bowl. Cover and

chill for 3 to 24 hours. In small saucepan combine raspberries, pineapple juice,

and cornstarch. Cook and stir over medium heat until mixture is thick. Cool.

Press through sieve to remove seeds; discard seeds. Transfer to bowl, add

sweetener, and chill until serving time. To serve, lift pears with slotted

spoons from cooking mixture and place in dessert dishes. Spoon chilled sauce

over pears.
