GORGONZOLA AND WALNUT STUFFED CELERY
I am always looking for new twists on appetizers or new additions. Here is one recipe that comes from Cooking with Patty. It is an italian recipe using soft gorgonzola cheese not to be confused with American gorgonzola. However if you only can find the crumbled American gargonzola it can work see the tweeks below. Patty writes,"I'm a Gongonzola cheese lover, but if you've never tasted it I suggest you to try it before preparing this recipe. Gorgonzola has a characteristic taste and a distinctive flavor and for some of you it could be too strong. The best way to taste it is to leave it out of the fridge for at least 30 minutes before serving. Don't substitute Gorgonzola with blue cheese, Rockford or Stilton because they seem similar but they're not. The cheese used in this recipe is the sweet variety which is creamy and slightly spicy, not the spicy and hard type which resembles the above mentioned cheeses." See below for ways to make Patty's or the Americanized version. Both are a nice addition to any buffet. My guests enjoyed them. You only wish it made more. So if you like Gorgonzola double it. Enjoy.

Steps:
- 1.Trim the stalks and cut them into 4-inch pieces.
- 2. In a bowl combine the gorgonzola cheese with the walnuts. Stir the ingredients together until smooth and well combined.
- 3. Fill the celery sticks with the cheese mixture and chill before serving.
- 4.****For the American Gorgonzola recipe****.
- use same ingredients but use 1/2 cup CRUMBLED Gorgonzola cheese and
- 1 Tbsp finely chopped GLAZED walnuts. The Americanized Gorgonzola is the spicier taste and the glazed walnuts counteract that with sweetness. The perfect match. You will need to mash the Gorgonzola with the back of a spoon and stir in the nuts. The mixture will be a thick paste to spread on the celery. Spread and Chill before serving.

GORGONZOLA AND WALNUT FOUGASSE
Steps:
- Place a baking stone in the middle of the oven and preheat to 470 degrees F.
- On a lightly floured work surface, cut the dough into 4 equal pieces with a bench scraper.
- Using your fingertips, flatten the dough pieces. Transfer 1 of the pieces to the back of a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and lightly dusted with cornmeal. Cover generously with walnuts and Gorgonzola and top with another piece of dough. Press down on the edges to seal. Using a small palette knife, cut 8 evenly spaced holes in the dough. Stretch the dough to enlarge the holes. Lightly brush the fougasse with olive oil and cover lightly with plastic wrap. Place the loaf in a warm place and let rise for 30 minutes. Repeat to make 1 more loaf.
- Working with 1 loaf a time, slide the fougasse, still on the parchment paper, onto the baking stone. Bake until crispy and brown, about 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer the fougasse to a rack to cool. Repeat with the remaining loaf.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the pate fermentee and water and, using your hands, break up the dough into the water.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, yeast, and salt. Add the flour mixture to the pate fermentee mixture and mix by hand until firm and cohesive, about 3 minutes. Allow dough to rest for 10 minutes.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Knead the dough until very elastic and smooth, about 10 to 15 minutes. Take the dough's temperature. It should be at 78 degrees F.
- Transfer the dough to a large bowl and cover with plastic wrap (the plastic should not touch the dough). Place the bowl in a warm place (about 75 to 78 degrees F.) and let rise for a total of 1 hour and 45 minutes. After the first 45 minutes, fold the dough and turn it over in the bowl. (It will somewhat deflate the dough, but it is gentler than what's commonly referred to as "punching down.")
- Let the dough rise, undisturbed, for 1 hour more. (The dough will rise considerably at this point.)
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Press the dough gently into a rectangle, to degas it.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and yeast. Add the water and, using your hands, mix until incorporated, about 3 minutes. (Alternatively, mix in a mixer on the lowest setting possible.) Cover bowl with plastic wrap and put in a warm place (about 75 degrees F.). Let the dough ferment for 1 hour. Take the dough's temperature. It should be at 75 degrees F.
- Refrigerate the dough at least 10 hours and up to 36 hours. When ready, it will be roughly doubled in size and have a fine network of filaments and holes. Make this recipe the night before you mix the dough.

- Pate Fermentee just means "old dough". "Old dough?", you say. Well, this old dough is basically a starter that is made the day before, and cuts down on the time you eventually spend in the kitchen. Nothing wrong with that. It also makes the bread last longer, gives it a slightly acidic and subtly complex flavor, and helps the inside of the bread form tiny irregular holes that are a sign of great artisanal bread (called "crumb" in baker-speak).
- If you can, try weighing out the ingredients, instead of using measuring cups and spoons-it's much more accurate.
- Use this dough to make Scali, an Italian sesame seed-crusted bread, or Gorgonzola and Walnut Fougasse-or both.
- 1 recipe refrigerated Pate Fermentee (1 3/4 pounds), recipe follows
- 1 1/2 cups minus 1 tablespoon 80 degree F. water (.71 pound)
- 3 1/2 cups unbleached, unbromated all-purpose flour (1 pound)
- 1 teaspoon minus 1/16 teaspoon instant dry yeast (2.8 grams)
- 2 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt (9 grams)
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the pate fermentee and water and, using your hands, break up the dough into the water.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, yeast, and salt. Add the flour mixture to the pate fermentee mixture and mix by hand until firm and cohesive, about 3 minutes. Allow dough to rest for 10 minutes.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Knead the dough until very elastic and smooth, about 10 to 15 minutes. Take the dough's temperature. It should be at 78 degrees F.

Steps:
- Make the vinaigrette: Put the shallot in a small bowl with the vinegar and a good pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Let macerate for 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in the mustard, then whisk in the oils. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- Make the crostini: Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and brown, turning frequently. When it begins to soften, season generously with salt and pepper; reduce heat to medium. Continue cooking for about 5 minutes, until nicely caramelized. Add the rosemary and transfer to a bowl to cool to room temperature.
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Put the bread in the toaster until lightly browned, then lay the slices on a baking sheet. Spread about 1/2 ounce Gorgonzola on each toast, then top with the onion mixture and 3 or 4 walnut halves.
- Bake on the top shelf of the oven until bubbling and lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Cut into wedges if desired.
- Assemble the salad: Put the greens and chopped celery in a low wide salad bowl. Just before serving, lightly sprinkle with salt and pepper, then toss with half the vinaigrette, just coating the leaves. Peel, core and slice the pears. Dress the slices with the rest of the vinaigrette in a separate bowl, spoon the pears over the salad, and serve with the warm crostini on the side.

ITALIAN TORTA WITH MASCARPONE, GORGONZOLA, AND WALNUTS
This savory spread is served in the form of a cake and served at Christmas and New Year's parties in Italy. It's decadent spread on bread or crackers. It is usually served with mostarda di frutta (candied fruit in a spicy, sweet syrup). If you can't find that, serve with crisp pears and honey. If you like, you can use sprigs of rosemary, some cinnamon bark, or sticks to decorate a forest scene on the top.
