If you could choose:Would you choose (unpeeled) pears roasted in red wine, served in a reduced glaze of red wine, black peppercorn and bayleaf poaching syrup, above? With the optional addition of marscarpone cream in the hollows, with crumbled Amaretti biscuits sprinkled over the top?
Or:Would you choose pears poached in white wine, served cold with warm chocolate sauce, with reduced glaze of sauvignon blanc and lemon peel served in addition, on the side? Forgive blurry picture, below.
I need to know.

Both are not possible? Ok, the one with the chocolate sauce...
Both look delish! But if I had to choose - the pears in red wine!!! But really I want both.
The chocolate one looks more elegant. I am sure they both taste delicious.
dono nuthin about it, but my gut says the red wine pears.
number 2
Sign me up for the chocolate one, also.
if i were fullish, i would eat the whole pear avec chocolat. if i had saved room, i would eat both.
Red wine pears, please.
Not fair! Oh okay, the pear with chocolate for today, pear with red wine for tomorrow, please.
Mmmm, both look really good but I'd go for the pears in red wine with mascarpone and ammaretto - makes me wish I had pears and red wine in the house!
How did you and your farm fare during the storm/maybe tornado?
red wine every time. peaches are great cooked this way too.
Can you do look #2 and taste #1?
My vote for #1.
Note to self: Wear a bib when I read your food posts...It's becoming quite embarrassing!
If we choose will you post the recipes? Have to go with #2 because of the chocolate, but one wow, they both sound wonderful!
#1, please!
Final decision, it's been so hard, pears with chocolate. In depth of winter I'd go with the red wine one, not sure why. All delish and distracting!
Ha. It's hard, isn't it!
Thank you all very much for playing. I will be less cryptic about something I am working on as time goes by, but for now you have been very helpful. Belinda, your comment about dead of winter and red wine pears was very helpful, too.
Probably too late now but I would go for the white wine & choco - oooooh - yummy
Just perhaps wondering if the skins on the red wine pears are putting people off. Think they did me a smidgen.x
