Ingredients
- 6 Organic Pears
- 5 ounces Loquats
- 4 teaspoons Ground Ginger
- 1/2 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 1 tablespoon Organic Lemon zest
- 1 stick Canela (Cinnamon Sticks)
- 2 tablespoons Organic Lemon juice freshly squeezed (separate use)
- 8 ounces Non Fat Vanilla Yogurt
Directions
Peel 4 pears and coarsely chop (including cores), then transfer to a 3 to 4 quart saucepan. Add loquats, ginger, water, sugar, zest, cinnamon stick, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice and simmer. Keep covered, until pears are very tender, about 20 minutes. Discard cinnamon stick and force mixture through food mill into a bowl. If desired, stir in up to 1 tablespoon additional sugar and cool sauce. While sauce is cooling, peel, core, and finely dice (1/3 inch) remaining 2 pears (1 pound), then toss with remaining tablespoon lemon juice in a bowl. Spoon 1/4 cup sauce into each of 6 (8-ounce) glasses and top each serving with 2 tablespoons diced pear. Then spread 2 tablespoons yogurt in each glass and top with 2 more tablespoons diced pear and 1/4 cup sauce.
Garnish with diced pear and loquats.
