We wanted to make a dessert that can be made entirely in an instant pot (pressure cooker), slow cooker, or even on the stovetop because many Chinese recipes typically call for a steamer or stovetop. Depending on your requirements, we have included all three cooking options.

Ingredients:

8 whole pears, peeled with the stems still attached, ripe and firm
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 cups water
3 twills cinnamon sticks or 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 whole star anise
16 Chinese red dates, also known as jujubes
2 tablespoons goji berries
13.5 cups honey, or as much as 23.5 cups, depending on how sweet you like it.

Instructions

For the Instant Pot Drizzle lemon juice over the pears after placing them upright in the instant pot. Cook for 6 minutes at high pressure with water, cinnamon sticks, star anise, Chinese red dates, goji berries, and honey before performing a quick release. Enjoy!

Method by stovetop: Place the pears in a pot and shower them with lemon juice. Join the pears, cinnamon sticks, star anise, Chinese red dates, goji berries, and honey with adequate water to cover them halfway. If you really want to fill your pot with water, you should also add more honey. Pears should be steam-cooked for about 30 minutes to achieve fork-tenderness. Enjoy!

The Method of Cooking Slowly: Drizzle lemon juice over the upright pears that have been placed in your slow cooker. Cook on high for a few hours, or until fork-delicate, with water, cinnamon sticks, star anise, Chinese red dates, goji berries, and honey. Enjoy!

In a bowl, combine the goji berries and Chinese red dates with the pears and a little bit of the sweet dessert soup. Depending on your preference, consume it hot, cold, or at room temperature. In a sealed container, leftovers can be kept up to three days at room temperature.

Notes:

For the best results, use firm, ripe pears. Cooking time will be reduced if you cut your pears rather than cooking them whole. Rock sugar can be used in place of honey. You can leave out the cinnamon and star anise if you have a fever.
