1
Combine water, sugar, honey, wine, ginger, vanilla bean, star anise, and cinnamon sticks in a large pot and bring to a simmer. Add the pears, taking care that they are all covered by the poaching liquid.
2
Cut a round of parchment large enough to cover the pot with an extra inch around the sides. Cut a 1 inch hole in the center of parchment and press the round, with the hole directly in the center, directly on top of poaching liquid.
3
Simmer pears in the liquid until they are fork-tender and slightly translucent (depending on the pears, this can take anywhere from 45 minutes to 1 hour) Allow pears to cool in liquid before serving or using for baking. To serve, cut the pears in half the long way and scoop out the seeds with a melon ball scoop. Cut out the pith from the stems and the base.
