From Orchard to Oven: Pear & Gorgonzola Galette
Happy Sunday! Every Sunday we share a recipe so you can cook along with us.
Sunday Dinner
Pear & Gorgonzola Rosemary Galette
Hey friends,
I’ve always believed you can’t make great food without great ingredients. When you look at Washington’s Okanogan County and see how pears and apples are grown, you understand why they taste the way they do. Fruit comes from great people and great land, and that care really shows.
This week’s recipe celebrates that simplicity: a Pear and Gorgonzola Rosemary Galette. It feels perfect for holiday hosting because it looks impressive but is centered on letting the fruit shine. The sweet pears, the salty gorgonzola, and the crisp puff pastry come together in a way that feels effortless and comforting.
You’ll find this recipe in our Ingredient Spotlight from Homemade On the Road, a special episode of Homemade Live! where we explore the ingredients and communities that inspire the dishes we make. From oysters in Maine to peaches in Texas to ranchers in Oregon and then back home in the Okanogan County, it is a trip filled with generous people and unforgettable flavors.
If you want to see the full story behind this galette and the ingredients from Joyfully Grown, you can watch the episode below.
