Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and carefully add the peeled pears. Poach the pears for 20 to 35 minutes, or until they are fork-tender but still retain their shape.


Remove the saucepan from the heat. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the pears to a glass bowl. Discard the cinnamon stick, whole cloves, and bay leaf from the poaching liquid.






Allow the pears to cool to room temperature in the bowl, which will take approximately 30 minutes. If desired, chill the pears in the poaching liquid for up to one day before serving.
