Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 ounces chilled Gorgonzola cheese (for strong flavor) or 6 ounces chilled Saga Blue cheese (for milder flavor)
1 firm-ripe pear such as Bartlett or Anjou
four 1/2-inch-thick slices whole-grain bread
1 cup watercress sprigs (about 1/2 bunch, coarse stems discarded)

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler.
  • Cut cheese into thin slices. Halve pear lengthwise and core with a lemon-ball cutter. Slice pear thin crosswise.
  • On a baking sheet toast both sides of bread about 3 inches from heat until golden. Divide watercress among toasts and cover with overlapping pear slices. Arrange cheese over pear slices and broil sandwiches until cheese is melted, about 1 minute.

These sandwiches were a disaster! The pears were too hard, the gorgonzola was too strong, and the watercress was wilted.

I'm not usually a fan of gorgonzola, but it's surprisingly good in this sandwich. The pears and watercress help to balance out the flavor.

I'm not a big fan of watercress, so I used arugula instead. It worked just as well.

I used a balsamic vinegar reduction instead of the honey. It added a nice tangy flavor to the sandwiches.

I added a little bit of honey to the pears before grilling them. It gave them a nice caramelized flavor.
