One of my favorite combinations of bread, cheese and heat is an open-faced sandwich of blue cheese and honey. In the past, I’ve had good luck with Stilton and Maytag, but any blue that isn’t too much on the crumbly side will work well.
Simply split a baguette and toast it slightly. Add chunks of blue cheese and drizzle with honey. I’m fond of using a light, mild honey that doesn’t compete too much with the cheese. Orange blossom is usually a good bet. Run the sandwich under the broiler until the cheese melts and blotches here and there. Cool slightly and serve.
