PEAR AND BLUE CHEESE SOUP

I took a trip to Ireland November 2011. I picked up this cookbook called A taste of Killarney, compiled by Jane Bergin. This recipe is from Hannigan's Bar & Restaurant, Chef Jason Barry.

Steps:

  • 1. Soften the diced onion and garlic in butter over low heat for 5 minutes being careful no to color.
  • 2. Chop the cored pears, add to the butter mixture and heat for about 2 minutes.
  • 3. Stir in the flour to make a roux. Cook for about 1 minute. Add the chicken stock and stir until smooth. Bring to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes.
  • 4. Crumble the Cashel blue cheese and hold a little back for garnish. Add cheese to the liquid. To serve, sprinkle remaining cheese over the top.
  • 5. My note: Any blue cheese will work. Cashel is a place in Ireland where this blue cheese is made.
