Stir so that the pears don't become black.
Heat the pan and put the lid without covering completely.
Simmer over low heat about 1 hour and 40 minutes.
Stir occasionally so it doesn't stick to the bottom.
Check the consistency, if you drag a spoon along the pan and it leaves a trail, the jam is ready.
