Roquefort Ice Cream with Pears

Combining the cheese and dessert courses into one delicious package, cheese ice creams are featured on many modern Spanish menus. Blue cheese ice cream in particular is a tasty and terrific idea. While pears make perfect sense, the ice cream can also be paired with other fruit, especially figs, either fresh, roasted, or in a quick compote. Instead of Roquefort, you can substitute Gorgonzola. And try making the ice cream with a mild or aged goat cheese, too.
