Directions
Brandied Blue Cheese With Pear Crostini, I think I got this from an old Gourmet magazine It is an elegant pass around appetizer and appeals to anyone that likes blue cheese , Yummy! Two small changes, I roasted my nuts and used gorgonzola, just because I like it better than bleu Honestly, probably didn’t change the taste at all used bartlett because they were fresher, but any pear would work I did do one thing differently, I toasted both sides first, then topped with the pear and cheese mix I liked the toasted bread rather then untoasted I tried it both ways and by far preferred the toasted But great flavor, no changes other than the toasting, and blue cheese would be great That was just a personal taste and the walnuts, toasted or not Both work fine Just habit, I always toast mine Not big deal if you don’t Great flavor, tasty, and they all disappeared Sweet, tangy great, Oh my, this looks fabuloso! Everything I love on a baguette! I plan on making this tomorrow and taking it to a friend’s house for the appetizer I’ll be sure to get back to you Part 2: I brought this to a friends home for appetizers and it was a HUGE hit! I wish I had made more The pear balances out the saltiness of the cheese beautifully I substituted slivered almonds for the walnuts due to allergies worked great I also toasted the nuts in the oven before combining with the Gorgonzola cheese THANKS, this recipe is a keeper!
