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.

The pears were too soft and the gorgonzola was too strong.

I added a little bit of honey to the dressing, and it really brought out the flavor of the pears.

I'm not a big fan of blue cheese, but I really enjoyed the gorgonzola in these sandwiches. It was mellowed out by the sweetness of the pears.

I love how this recipe uses seasonal ingredients. The pears are at their best right now, and the watercress adds a nice freshness.

These sandwiches were a hit at our last picnic! The combination of sweet pears, tangy cheese, and peppery watercress is simply divine.
