Notes: Although the pizza is contemporary, the pairing of blue veined cheese with walnuts is a time honored classic. Offer it after dinner, with a class of Vin Santo or port.
Substitute another blue veined cheese of your choice, such as Roquefort or Stilton, or a creamy Camembert of Brie pared of the white rind. Pecans or almonds can stand in for walnuts.
