Ever cut that piece of fruit that wasn't ripe?

OMG how many time has this happened? A million! then its like damn...you either eat the flavorless hard thing or throw it away. Dice it up, toss it in a small pot with a little water or juice and cook it. You can add a little honey or sugar or agave to sweeten it up. Maybe a dash of spice. Cinnamon, star anise maybe. and cook it until it is soft. It is quite tasty. I am cooking 3 pears as we speak. I will have the yummy stuff with some baked Brie.
