Steps:
- Finely chop walnuts. In a small heavy skillet cook walnuts in oil over moderate heat, stirring, until golden and transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain.
- Have ready a bowl of ice and cold water. In a kettle of boiling salted water blanch beans 1 minute and immediately transfer with slotted spoon to ice water to stop cooking. Drain beans and gently peel away outer skins.
- Return kettle of water to a boil and cut potatoes into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Cook potatoes 8 minutes, or until just tender, and transfer with slotted spoon to ice water to stop cooking. Drain potatoes in a colander and pat dry with paper towels.
- In a small bowl stir together Gorgonzola and cream cheese until combined well. (Canapé ingredients may be prepared up to this point 2 days ahead. Keep toasted walnuts in an airtight container at room temperature. Chill beans and potatoes separately in sealable plastic bags and chill Gorgonzola cream covered with plastic wrap.)
- To assemble canapés:
- Spread about 1 teaspoon Gorgonzola cream on each potato slice and top each canapé with a bean, pressing down gently. Sprinkle canapés with walnuts. Canapés may be assembled 6 hours ahead and chilled, covered.

GORGONZOLA/ ASPARAGUS CANAPES
Steps:
- Mix together first 7 ingredients in medium mixing bowl. Trim crusts from bread and roll each slice flat with rolling pin. Spread 1 tablespoon of cheese mixture onto slice of bread. Place one spear of asparagus at one end of bread and roll up. Brush with butter and bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes
Tips:
- For the best results, use high-quality ingredients. Fresh bread, ripe tomatoes, and creamy gorgonzola cheese will make a big difference in the taste of your canapés.
- If you don't have time to make your own bread, you can use store-bought baguette or crostini.
- Be careful not to overcrowd the canapés. You want each one to have enough room to be enjoyed.
- If you're making the canapés ahead of time, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will keep for up to 24 hours.
- When you're ready to serve the canapés, bring them to room temperature for 30 minutes. This will help the flavors to meld and the cheese to soften.
Conclusion:
Gorgonzola canapés are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They're also a great way to use up leftover gorgonzola cheese. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a sophisticated and elegant appetizer that your guests will love.
