<\/p>\nPoached pears and red wine is a perfect combo.<\/p>\n
I used ingredients from Romagna. But you look for local fruits and wine and use my recipe to add Italian flavor to your dessert.<\/p>\n
As the first cold weather arrives, you find tons of cakes, rainbow frostings, and fireworks on each social network. And what do I offer you? Peached pears cooked in spiced wine, an old-fashioned recipe of my own home. A dish with the flavor and warmth of home and tradition.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
With this dessert, here is also served a bit of my own story.
\nTheir slightly spicy scent was those of November evenings.
\nWhen Sara baked this simple dessert while the adults played cards.<\/p>\n
Card playing has been a pastime of many a cold evening.
\nThose that make double the pleasure of being home together. It is also a dessert that encapsulates the quintessence of Romagna, a rustic and genuine land where fruit and a glass of red wine are never lacking on the table.<\/p>\n
Volpina, literally, means little fox.
\nThey are called Volpina because old farmers told fox was gluttonous of them.\u00a0Volpine pears are a variety of unknown origin that is widespread between Romagna and Umbria.<\/p>\n
