Method:
Wash the rice, and boil it in plenty of water until tender; then strain well,
and after drying it in a moderately hot oven, take out and add the vanilla,
stirring well when doing so. This done, lay it in a suitable plate, over which
the boiled pears are to be placed.
Then take the pears, skin them, and after cutting each into halves, boil in the
one cupful water; after a few boils also adding the sugar. When done, take them
out and arrange over the rice. Then continue boiling the water in which the
pears were boiled, until it gets a little thicker, when it should be poured over
the pears and the rice. Serve cold.
