For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of ground ginger to the glaze. If you don't have Anjou pears, Bosc or Bartlett pears will also work well. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before serving. Consider adding a splash of orange juice to the glaze for brightness.
