Here is a very beautiful verrine of pear compote with sherry vinegar/roquefort whipped cream and walnuts!

Ingredients for 10 servings

4 pears
4 tablespoons of sugar
4 tablespoons of sherry vinegar
20 cl of whole liquid cream
100 g of roquefort
salt, 5 peppercorns
a few walnuts roughly chopped

Step-by-step directions

1- Peel the pears, remove the core, cut them into small pieces, cook them on low heat in a saucepan by adding the sherry vinegar and sugar for 5 minutes.

2- Blend until you obtain a syrupy texture.

3- Put in the bottom of your verrines and store in the refrigerator until the compote is well chilled.

4- Then take the roquefort, crumble it and melt it in the microwave.

5- Pepper and salt just a little. Whip the cream into whipped cream.

6- Add the cooled roquefort. Refrigerate.

7- Then take a piping bag and add the whipped cream on top.

8- Finish the decoration by sprinkling with crushed walnuts. It's ready!

Chef Patrick's Comment

Good recipe, don't forget to pepper your whipped cream, personally I don't cook my pear cubes with vinegar but with a sweet wine (Sauternes or Jurançon).
