Brischtner Nytlä

Brischtner nytlä or gedörrte birnen mit rahm is a traditional dessert originating from Switzerland. It's made with a simple combination of dried pears, sugar, red wine, and whipped cream. The red wine is mixed with sugar and a bit of water, and the combination is simmered over medium heat.

The pears are added to the pan and cooked until soft. While they're cooking, the pears should be completely covered with the liquid. Once softened, the pears are taken out of the pan, quartered, and the seeds and stem are discarded. The remaining liquid should be syrupy, and the pears are placed back into the pan until everything cools down a bit.

The pears are arranged on a plate, then topped with the sauce and a few clouds of whipped cream before serving.
