Directions:
- Choose a casserole or baking dish with just enough room to lay pears head to tail in single layer.
- Peel the pears thinly, leaving the stalks on, then immediately roll each one in a saucer containing the juice of the lemon.
- Put the pears into the dish.
- Spoon on scant 4 tablespoons honey and add any lemon juice remaining in the saucer. Bring the grape juice to simmering point and pour it over the pears.
- Cover the dish and bake at 325 F until the fruit is beautifully tender.
- How long this will take varies enormously - 1 hour is enough for semi-ripe dessert pears; 3 hours or more may be needed for pears so hard that they seem to be carved from wood.
- Baste the pears frequently as they bake and.
- Turn them occasionally to encourage even cooking.
- When the pears are ready, transfer them to a serving dish, standing them upright. Boil the cooking liquid until it turns syrupy and is reduced by about half.
- Stir in an extra tablespoon or two of honey if you think a little more sweetness is desirable but avoid the temptation to make the juices too sweet; the appeal of the dish lies in its fruitiness.
- Spoon the syrupy glaze over the pears. Serve warm or cold.
