Serves: 72

Print this Recipe

Prep Time: 1 hour - Yield: 4 1/2 cups


   5 firm ripe pears
   1 large thin-skinned orange (such as Valencia or Temple)
   1 1/2 cups water
   1 1/2 cups sugar
   2 tablespoons grated orange peel
   1 1/2 teaspoons ginger
   2 tablespoons cold water
   1 tablespoon cornstarch


1. Peel, core and dice pears. Cut unpeeled orange into fourths and slice each fourth into 1/4-inch slices; remove seeds.

2. In large saucepan, combine pears, orange and 1 1/2 cups water. Cook over medium heat until fruit is tender, about 7 minutes. Stir in sugar. Bring to a boil. Boil 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in orange peel and ginger.

3. In small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons cold water and cornstarch; add to hot fruit mixture. Simmer 5 minutes or until mixture thickens slightly.

4. Ladle mixture into 5 clean, hot 8-oz. jars or moisture-vaporproof freezer containers, leaving 1/2-inch headspace. Cool 15 minutes; cover with tight-fitting lids. Store in refrigerator for up to 3 weeks or in freezer for up to 3 months.
