Hello Manjula, I’m loving your site and recipes. Thank you, I tried your gnocci but found it a little too wet. I’m sure it was my fault for not drying the cauliflower well enough, so I will try again. Still, it was a delicious mess. I made double the pear chutney recipe, and am eating it like a dessert…. Mmmmmm. Have a wonderful day.

I made this today . Turned out good . Thanks
Interesting sauce…the gnocchi are unusual but knowing they were made by Manjula, they are bound to taste good. Manjula, you should try gorgonzola cheese with pears.
Thank you
I agree, gorgonzola goes beautifully with pears (BTW I love your recipes Manjula, and normally I wouldn’t comment about such a fine point) but gorgonzola isn’t vegetarian. It’s a listed European cheese and therefore to be called “gorgonzola” it must be made using animal rennet rather than vegetarian rennet. Ultimately, eating gorgonzola would come down to your reasons for vegetarianism…The same goes for many cheeses – including Parmesan and Roquefort. Am I being picky? Yes probably, but I think there’s a lot of vegetarians who aren’t aware that many cheeses are not actually vegetarian.
Oh I should point out it’s quite easy to find vegetarian alternatives to cheeses like gorgonzola – they just can’t be called “gorgonzola” – and these will all go beautifully with pear too!
The issue is just like with parmesan. Technically only parmesan made with animal rennet can be called parmesan, but you can use the equivalent made with microbic rennet. Gorgonzola with microbic rennet exists, it just can’t be called “gorgonzola” on the cover. You can find it in some supermarkets in Italy.
