5gAgar

300mlJagertee

Preparation
- Cut a fresh Doyenné du Comice into small cubes. Place them in lemon juice to prevent discoloration.
- Make a syrup from the water, Jagertee, sugar, and the seeds from a vanilla pod. Poach the pear cubes in this and let them drain well.
- Make the gel by thinning the pear purée with a little water so it becomes slightly thinner (optionally season with a bit of pear liqueur).
- Add sugar and agar and bring to a boil.
- Pour out, let cool, and then blend in a food processor until smooth and pipeable.
