Steps:
- Combine first 7 ingredients in heavy large saucepan. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves and mixture comes to simmer. Add pears and return mixture to simmer. Reduce heat and simmer slowly until pears are tender when pierced with knife, about 25 minutes. Transfer pears to plate. Boil liquid in saucepan until reduced to 3 cups, about 20 minutes. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill pears in poaching liquid. Before serving, rewarm over medium-low heat until pears are heated through.)
- Arrange 1 warm pear and 1 scoop of ice cream on each of 4 plates. Drizzle some poaching liquid over. Sprinkle with biscotti crumbs. Garnish with orange peel strips, if desired, and serve.
POACHED PEARS IN RED WINE
Jeff Potter enjoys the science of cooking, which is why he wrote, "Cooking for Geeks: Real Science, Great Hacks and Good Food." For a combined dessert and science experiment, Mr. Potter suggests poaching pears, which causes changes in the structure of the fruit's flesh, breaking down cell walls and affecting the bonds between neighboring cells to create a softer texture that's infused with the flavor of the poaching liquid. While you can get away with poaching pears that are a little underripe, you can also encourage pears to ripen by storing them in a paper bag.

Steps:
- Remove the pear cores and slice pears lengthwise into eighths or twelfths.
- Set the pan over low to medium heat, bringing the wine to a simmer. Add pepper to taste, and then poach the pears for 5 to 10 minutes, until soft. Flip the pears halfway through so that both sides of the slices spend some time in the liquid.
- Remove the pears from the liquid. If desired, you can reduce the liquid down to a syrup to pour over the fruit. The pears can also be served with caramel sauce, vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

PEAR AND RED WINE SORBET
This sorbet might sound unusual, but it's a sophisticated (and delicious) twist on the standard one-note fruit sorbet: the sweetness of the pears and the acidity of the red wine balance each another out, a sprinkle of black pepper adds bite and a baseline of cinnamon and vanilla warm it all up. It couldn't be easier to make (sauté, blend and freeze) and it's gorgeous to boot.

Steps:
- Peel, core and quarter the pears. Place them in a medium saucepan with the sugar, red wine, water, cinnamon stick and vanilla extract. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, until the pears are soft and translucent. This will take 15 to 20 minutes if the pears are ripe and soft to begin with, or about 30 minutes if they're somewhat hard. Add the pepper.
- Using tongs, remove the pears to a bowl. Remove the cinnamon stick from the poaching liquid, and discard. Turn up the heat, and reduce until the mixture has the consistency of a thin syrup. (This step may be unnecessary, depending on how long you cooked the pears and how juicy they were.)
- Place the pears, in batches, in a blender, or place all of them in a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Purée until smooth. Slowly add the poaching liquid and the lemon juice, and blend together. Transfer to a bowl, and chill. Meanwhile, place a 1-quart container in the freezer.
- Freeze in an ice cream maker following the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to the chilled container, and freeze for at least two hours before serving. If frozen solid, allow to soften in the refrigerator for 15 to 30 minutes.
