I have to confess, I always thought Blue cheese was actually blue till I started blogging and surfing food blogs. I wouldn’t have been adventurous enough to buy a Blue cheese block (for quite a handsome price) if I wasn’t inspired by the fabulous recipes showcased on foodblogs!
I googled for blue cheese recipes to do justice to the price I paid for the exotic (yes here it is exotic) cheese and I found this at The Kitchn amongst many wonderful ones! Pear and Blue cheese crostata!
Followed the recipe to the last word and was rewarded with a flavorful dessert with the exotic cheese! A bit sharp to taste but this cheese blends well with the other flavors in the crostata. A wonderful celebration for the holidays!
there were so many things I didn’t know that existed before I started food blogging madhuli… isn’t it wonderful.. how this blogging community inspires & teaches so much every time :).. the crostata looks wholesome.

First time on your site and I loved the spread you have. Kung-Pao had only heard about it but never knew it was simple to make if planned. Btw, I a big fan of Blue Cheese dip. Will drop in more often.
Happy Blogging Madhuli!!
I seriously took to Blue Cheese only after I came to the US … this is such a unique take on it … wonderful, Madhuli!
Hi Madhuli, You made the Crostata…awesome! Its looks wonderful and I am sure it was delicious:)
I’ve actually made a pear and blue cheese soup – its the perfect combination of sweet and savory!
Bleu cheese and fruit — such a classic combo. Looks delicious! 🙂
