Caramelized pear sandwich with gorgonzola and arugula by Delicious Martha
The sandwich is probably one of the most underrated dishes, and yet we turn to it more than we'd like to admit. So, first of all, a clarification: there are sandwiches... and then there are sandwiches.
This time, Delicious Martha brings us the ultimate gourmet sandwich. A recipe featuring caramelized pear, gorgonzola cheese, arugula, and walnuts that plays with the sweet and savory contrast. The content creator and expert in "easy recipes for busy and hungry people" prepares what will be the sandwich of your dreams and, moreover, opens up a world of possibilities when it comes to experimenting with ingredients.
For example, if you're not a big fan of blue cheese, you can always use a creamy cheese like brie or camembert instead. You can also play with crunchy textures by adding walnuts or pistachios, and if you'd like to try other caramelized fruit snacks, we can tell you that the peach, burrata, and arugula mix is also fantastic.
Ingredients:
- 2 slices of sandwich bread
- 1 pear, gorgonzola cheese
- 2 tablespoons of honey
- 3 tablespoons of butter
- 1 small handful of walnuts
- 1 handful of arugula and salt
Elaboration:
- Toast the bread on both sides in a pan with a little butter. Cut the pears into quarters and slice them without peeling them.
- In the same pan, melt the butter and honey until both ingredients are combined. Add the pear, stirring carefully, until it is caramelized on all sides.
- Spread a little blue cheese on the toasted bread. Place the pear on top and add a handful of chopped walnuts. Finish with a few arugula leaves sprinkled with salt for freshness.
