Cooking Instructions

Combine Soy Sauce (1 tablespoon), Maple Syrup (2 tablespoon) and Balsamic Vinegar (1 cup) in a small sauce pan. Bring to a simmer and reduce by half, or until mixture coats the back of a spoon. Take care not to burn it by stirring often.

Allow to cool completely and store in the refrigerator until ready to use.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).

Slice the Pear (2) in half and remove seeds and core. Shave off a small piece of the rounded portion so that the pears sit flat. Drizzle with Olive Oil (as needed).

Fill with Blue Cheese (2 ounce) and wrap with a piece of Prosciutto (4 slice) in half lengthwise. Brush exposed pieces of cut pear with a little Olive Oil (as needed).

Bake for about 25 minutes, until pears have softened slightly.

Serve warm with balsamic glaze and enjoy.
