Chard with Winter Pear, Pecans and Dried Cherries
Wonderful chard with winter pear and dried tart cherries is on tonights menu.
Be sure to wash greens well before using. Use fresh winter pears like D’Anjou or Comice. It’s OK if the pears are firm. You’re poaching them. You may use canned pears if you cannot find fresh. Just slice them and arrange them over the greens (no need to poach them).
