It’s pumpkin season which means we’re surrounded by those beautiful little gourds. And while pumpkin lends itself to sweet things, we like to mix it up and create savory dishes with it, as well.
Especially as appetizers for cocktails.
And how delicious would this tart be with the tipple of your choice?
Personally, I like it with a merlot with a big bold personality, but it would also be delicious with a good ole whiskey and ginger.
Speaking of delicious, the pumpkin really, really, loves lemony ricotta with a titch of heat from red pepper flakes. Just look at this creamy spoonful of heaven…
And when it’s kissed with the blue cheese – well, it’s a proverbial slice of heaven.
And feel free to grab an assertive blue cheese, like a gorgonzola. It’s the modest star of the show, so indulge in a top shelf one. Now round up your ingredients and get that F.N. Sharp Chef Knife and cutting board ready to slice and serve this perfectly savory tart!

I got these for my husband and he LOVED them! Starting with the box - so well made and packaged - beautifully designed and balanced handle - everything is perfect about the knife. Great job F N Sharp!
Functional, great capacity, and beautifully made. We tossed our old knife block out, but included the old knives in with the new, as there is ample room.
