Instructions

  1. 1.

    Let the frozen puff pastry sheets thaw while lying side by side. Peel the pears, cut them lengthwise into halves and remove the cores. Place the pear halves in a pot and pour over the elderberry juice; if the pears are not fully covered, top up with water. Bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes on low heat, covered. Remove the pears and let them drain. Slice the pear halves fan‑shaped, keeping them attached at the stem base.

    Crush the Roquefort with a fork, mix in the quark, and season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
