1 garlic clove, halved
1 cup sweet wine, such as Passito di Pantelleria or Sauternes
3/4 pound Gorgonzola dolce or other blue cheese, such as Stilton, crumbled
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon cream cheese
Kosher salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Crusty bread, apple cubes or grapes, for serving.
1. Rub cut side of garlic on inside of a large Dutch oven or a heavy-bottomed saucepan, rubbing the bottom and half way up the sides. Add wine and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.
2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, toss Gorgonzola with cornstarch. Add a quarter of the cheese into simmering wine; reduce heat to medium, and whisk constantly until cheese is completely melted. Repeat until all cheese has been added. Whisk in cream cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with crusty bread, apple cubes and grapes.
Yield: 6 main course servings or 10 appetizer servings.
