Gorgonzola With Roasted Peaches Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Cut thin slice from rounded side of pear halves, if necessary, so they'll rest level in pan. In 13x9-inch pan, arrange pear halves, cut sides up. Brush tops of pears with oil; sprinkle with salt, pepper and rosemary.
• Roast uncovered 15 minutes. Fill cored hollow of each pear half with 2 teaspoons cheese. Roast uncovered 10 to 15 minutes longer or until pears are tender and cheese is soft. Sprinkle with walnuts. Drizzle with additional olive oil if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Peel the squash if desired. Halve the squash and scoop out and discard the seeds and strings. Cut into 1-inch wedges.
• Brush a roasting pan lightly with some of the butter. In a medium bowl, toss the squash with the remaining butter and season with the salt. Spread out on the pan and roast for about 30 minutes. Turn the wedges over with a pancake-style spatula and continue to roast until tender and browned, about 30 minutes more. Transfer the squash to an ovenproof serving dish, season with pepper to taste and sprinkle with the cheese, while still hot, to melt slightly (if needed, return the squash to the oven to melt the cheese). Serve.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat. Add the pancetta and cook until golden brown and crispy. Remove the pancetta with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate, and reserve the oil.
• Vinaigrette: Whisk together the lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, and honey in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper.
• Toss the peaches with some of the vinaigrette add the arugula and toss to combine. Transfer the greens to a platter, top with the peach halves and sprinkle the top with the gorgonzola and crispy pancetta. Serve with toast schmeared with fig preserves and gorgonzola.

Steps:

• Cut the peaches in half, stone removed & peeled.
• Heat oven to 325 degrees F.
• Place peaches, cut side up in an 8" baking pan.
• Fill each cavity with 1/2 tbsp honey, pour in 1/3 cup water & bake uncovered for 30 minutes or until the peaches are tender, reserve syrup.
• Cut each half peach into 4 wedges and arrange peaches on 4 serving plates, spoon syrup over the peaches, let cool until barely warm.
• Divide cheese into 4 pieces and place a piece on each of the 4 plates along side the peaches.
• Sprinkle a 1/2 tbsp honey over the each serving.
• Sprinkle with almonds.

Steps:

• Boil the potatoes whole until they are just tender. (Let them cool).
• Bring the heavy cream to a boil in medium saucepan. Continue to boil over medium heat, (somewhat rapid boil), for a full 45 minutes. It should thicken nicely. Make sure you stir and watch that is does not overboil or you'll have a mess.
• Remove from heat and add the cheeses, pepper and parsley. Whisk together and keep warm on low.
• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• Cut potatoes into nice size wedges.
• Put potatoes into a large bowl and add all the other ingredients.
• Toss lightly to coat evenly with the oil mixture.
• Place potatoes on cookie sheets evenly in single layer and bake until golden and crisp about 15 minutes. (Potatoes may be a little dry but that's not a problem as the sauce makes them perfect).
• Place crisp potatoes in a serving dish and pour Gorgonzola cheese sauce on top of all and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Brush both sides of the bread with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and lay on a baking sheet. Broil until lightly browned, about 1 minute a side. While the bread is still hot, gently rub both sides with the garlic. Spread the cheese evenly over each slice.
• Peel the peaches and split each in half vertically, gently twisting the halves in opposite directions to separate them from the pit. Lay each half cut side down and slice into 1/4-inch slices. Divide each half in half again and fan the slices over the cheese. Drizzle with remaining olive oil and rebroil until peaches are soft and hot, about 1 to 2 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Cook the penne in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes; drain.
• Return the drained pasta to the pot; stir the butter, Parmesan cheese, and Gorgonzola cheese into the pasta and place over medium heat; cook until the cheese is completely melted. Pour the cream into the pasta mixture; stir. Remove from heat and fold the pear into the pasta mixture. Top with walnuts. Season with pepper to serve.
