I liked the taste of this dish but next time would put some lemon on the pears right after cooking. They turned brown and looked awful- I tried to cover them up with the proscuitto but couldn't totally. I ended up throwing half of the pears away and using apples (with lemon on them this time. I also found that it required much more than 3 small pears to have the proper ratio of fruit to cheese.

I also had to double the cheese volume.

I offered this as a savory side of a dessert party. Everyone loved it. I will say with a 10" tart pan I felt I needed to double the cheese filling to create enough volume.

This hit the spot for a brunch on a hot Miami day. The shapness of the Gorgonzola with the sweetness of the pears and the saltiness of the prosciutto was incredible.

My foodie friends love this dish. It's simple but the flavors are complex - you've got creaminess, as well as the combination of sweet and savory. Elegant but not pretentious. And super yummy! If you find the cheese mixture too thick to spread, add a little of the juicy butter from cooking the pears, and it will add flavor and make it easier to spread.

Ok, admittedly this is not a particularly "gardeny" recipe - but then again it is fatty, fatty January.

Giada (Dino De Laurentiis granddaughter, proprietor of white teeth has a real dead-of-winter winner with this one.

For something decidedly delicious and naughty be sure to whip up this Pear Gorgonzola Tart for the weekend or your next dinner party or pot-luck. You'll surely take the prize and be the belle of the ball.

Mmm... Yum!
