Directions
Any good preserving pear may be used.
Slice and remove core or pickle whole; the latter method is preferred when Sickel pears are used.
Peel pears.
Put spices in a small cheese cloth bag and add to the vinegar and sugar and bring to a boil.
Add pears and cook until tender.
The pears will look clear when tender.
Remove them with a spoon and place them in sterilized jars.
Boil the syrup until it becomes thick, the pour it over pears and seal.
