That has always been a pretty classic combo on cheeseboards. Probably that is why they came up with the idea to put it on pizza. My favorite pizzeria has it on the regular menu too. They make thin slices of halved pears for it, so the pear is not raw after baking.
Had a pizza in Spain yesterday - pear, walnut and gorgonzola
Was absolutely stunning
I used to work at a pizzeria that had fig, pistachio, and arugula dressed with truffle honey. It was very popular.
Okay now THAT is weird. How did they prepare the pear? Big slices or little?
