Peel off the skin of the pears, and cut them in half lengthwise.  With a baller, remove their cores and stems.

In a large, shallow non-sticking pan, add the pears with the flat surfaces facing downward.  Add water, brown sugar, vanilla paste, spices, and lemon juice.  Bring it to a boil over high heat, and then reduce the heat to simmer.  Let it cook until the liquid reduces in half.

Gently turn each pear over with a spatula.  Let them cook until the liquid reduces half again.  Turn off the heat.  Transfer the pears and the syrup in a bowl.  Allow them to cool completely.

To store, you can place the pears with the syrup in a mason jar or any clean glass container.  The pears can be kept up to six months in the fridge.
