Notes / Tips / Wine Advice:
Festive Touch
Add whole hazelnuts and oregano or parsley sprigs to the serving platter for a dramatic flair.Kitchen Secrets
Italian Gorgonzola is rich and creamy with a mild, yet slightly pungent flavor and aroma. If you can’t find Gorgonzola, use blue cheese instead. And walnuts or pistachios can be used in place of the hazelnuts.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
