1.Peel, quarter and core pears. Place in a large saucepan with the water, ½ cup sugar, honey, lemon, orange rind and vanilla bean; bring to the boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, 25 minutes or until pears are tender. Using a slotted spoon, remove pears from syrup. Return liquid to the boil; boil syrup until reduced to ¾ cup; discard lemon and vanilla bean. Stir in 20 grams butter.
