Poached Pears
2 cups chardonnay
1 cup water
1/4 cup honey
3/4 cup sugar
8 dried apricots
8 dried figs
1 vanilla pod, split
2 strips of lemon zest
1 teaspoon salt
4 firm-fleshed pears
1/2 cup roasted pistachio kernels, finely chopped
Whipped cream
1 pint heavy cream
1/4 cup honey
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest, ultra-fine

1
Combine all ingredients up to pears in a shallow sauce pan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until the figs and apricots are soft. Strain them out and set aside. Turn the heat down to low.
2
Neatly peel, halve, and core the pears, removing the top and bottom stems if you prefer. Nestle the pears gently into the poaching liquid and poach at low heat for ~20 minutes, or until easily pierced with a fork but not falling apart. Gently remove from the poaching liquid and set both pears and poaching liquid aside to cool.
3
Finely dice the reserved apricots and figs and set aside.
4
Pour the cream into a medium sized mixing bowl or stand mixer. Whip at high speed until thickened and very creamy, but not yet holding peaks. Fold in other ingredients.
5
On a plate of your choosing, spoon a pool of cream onto each plate. Add a small quenelle of diced dried fruit to the outside edge of the plate-cover with a pear, seed cavity covering the fruit. Spoon 2 tablespoons of poaching liquid over the pear. Sprinkle with chopped pistachios and serve.
