Maple Ginger Pearsauce

1. 1

   Peel the pears and cut into 1-inch cubes (you should have about 8 cups).

2. 2

   Put the pears, maple syrup, cinnamon, ginger, and water into a medium pot. Stir well and set over high heat. When the liquid comes to a boil, drop the heat to low, cover the pot with a lid, and simmer.

3. 3

   Cook the pears, stirring occasionally, until they are tender enough to mash with a fork, about 20 minutes. Be sure that a little liquid remains in the bottom of the pot at all times. If not, add a tablespoon or two of water as needed. If quite a bit of juice remains when the pears are nearly cooked, remove the lid and turn up the heat so excess liquid evaporates.

4. 4

   Transfer the pears to a blender or food processor and puree until silky smooth. Pour into a bowl or storage container and refrigerate. The sauce will firm up as it cools.
