Preparation

• Mix all ingredients and simmer for 3 hours until dark and syrupy.
• You won't believe that the mixture you start with will end up a thick, caramely, intensely flavored pear chutney.
• The original pale, soupy pear mixture will slowly turn into something wonderful over the 3 hours of simmering.
