Thai Iced Tea French Toast

For the poached pears

1. In a 4-quart saucepan, bring water to a boil. Once it boils, turn the heat off.  Mix tea and sugar into hot water and let it steep for at least 15 minutes, making sure all sugar is dissolved. Strain tea and discard tea leaves.
2. Poach the pears in the tea liquid for about 30 minutes or until the pears are tender.

For the French toast

1. In a medium sized mixing bowl, whisk together brewed Thai tea, eggs, turbinado sugar, condensed milk and salt. 
2. Dip bread into mixture and allow to soak for 30 seconds on each side.
3. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a 10-inch sauté pan on medium heat high. Then, place 2 slices of bread at a time into the pan and cook until golden brown, approximately 2 minutes per side. Serve immediately with Thai tea poached pear with a sprinkle of powder sugar and condensed milk.
