Pear in Golden Syrup

Peel the pears and immediately place them in a bowl with water and lemon juice

Mix the 3 cups of water, sugar, and cinnamon, then bring to a boil

Let it simmer

When the sugar dissolves, add the pears

Reduce heat, cover the pan, and cook for about 25 minutes, stirring occasionally until they're tender but not mushy

Let the pears cool in the liquid

DRAIN, arrange on a plate, and refrigerate

Serve with the syrup made as follows: beat the egg yolks with sugar until thickened

Heat the mixture over warm water, slowly adding the orange juice while constantly beating until thickened

Remove from heat and from the water

Let it cool and serve over the pears

Serves 6.
