SAVORY TART WITH GORGONZOLA AND PEARS

Savory tart with gorgonzola and pears as many already know, I don’t eat cheese, but my husband and daughter love it, so sometimes I indulge them and prepare something delicious like this Savory Tart with Pears and Gorgonzola. For baking the savory tart with gorgonzola, pears, and walnuts, I used a 10.5-inch glass pie dish (like this ONE), obviously, you can also use a rectangular dish and rectangular puff pastry instead of round, and if you prefer, you can use shortcrust pastry. The tart with cheese and pears is very easy and quick to prepare, excellent eaten either hot or at room temperature. You can use the gorgonzola tart as a main dish, it’s ideal for buffets, or even served as an appetizer cut into wedges. You can take it to the beach or on outings; in short, it’s very versatile, like all savory tarts. If you’re also a gorgonzola lover, I recommend trying the RADICCHIO AND GORGONZOLA LASAGNA, the RADICCHIO AND GORGONZOLA PASTA with walnuts, the SAVORY PUFF PASTRY BUNDLES WITH PUMPKIN AND GORGONZOLA AND the PANETTONE CROSTINI WITH GORGONZOLA AND WALNUTS. Now let’s see how to make the savory tart with gorgonzola and pears, and if you try it, let me know. Barbara
