I woke up wanting waffles this morning. Plain waffles are a bit bland, they need something to top them. I had a large Asian pear in my fruit bowl and thought, “Why not.” A compote is simply fruit cooked in a sugar syrup—apple sauce is just one type of fruit compote.

Eilene has been asking for latkes lately. She has a friend coming over for dinner, so this seems like a good day to make them. Always trying new things, I decided to use tarragon and replace the usual apple sauce and sour cream with pear sauce and crème fraiche.

I wanted something a bit different to go with my latkes Monday night. Jan made a Drambuie sauce to go with the mousse she made for Father’s Day. I thought it made for a very tasty sauce and that it would complement the flavor of pears very nicely. Most of the alcohol in this sauce will cook off, leaving only the sweet flavor.
