Grilled Cheese with Pear



I recently tried a cheese at Central Market called, comte. It is a hard cheese, with robust, buttery and nutty notes. Immediately upon tasting, I thought it would pair perfectly with apples and pears.
It isn't cheap, so I kept it in mind, and waited a while before buying some.
I ended up making a grilled cheese on sweet multigrain bread with the pear and comte. I added a spread of tarragon dijon mustard and a drizzle of honey. Magnifico!

  1. 1. Comte is one of my favorite cheeses and you can buy some really good Comte at the market here on Fridays (so you must come visit us on a Friday sometime.)
    2. I think pears in cheese sandwiches are magical.
    3. Your photos have convinced me that you are a good cook. Is it true?
