   Peel and halve the pears and cut out the core. Put the juice, 500 ml water, 3 tablespoons sugar and cinnamon sticks into a large pot, bring everything to the boil. Form the dough into a dumpling on a work surface dusted with flour. Put it on a clean, large tea towel and knot everything tightly. Place on the pears immediately. Cover and let simmer for about 45 minutes at a mild heat (do not open the lid). Mix the pudding powder with 6 tbsp. cold water. Take the dumpling out of the pot and lift out the pears with a skimmer. Bring the stock to the boil, stir in the pudding powder, simmer for about 1 minute while stirring, remove from the heat. Halve the pear halves again and add to the thickened stock.
