Crostini di Mascarpone, Gorgonzola, e Nocciole

Crostini don’t have to be complicated to be good. Here’s a simple but rich spread for toasted bread inspired by a recipe in Milka Belgrado Passigli’s Le ricette di casa mia. Many of the book’s recipes are based on family traditions but updated for the modern kitchen. Therefore, I don’t think it sacrilegious to top this with a thin slice of ripe pear.
