Preparation steps

1.

Thaw puff pastry. Peel pears, halve lengthwise and core, keeping stems intact. Place pear halves into a saucepan and add elderberry juice. If pears are not covered enough with liquid, add a little water. Simmer, covered, for about 5 minutes on low heat. Remove pears with a slotted spoon and drain well. Score pear halves in a fan pattern.

2.

Crumble Roquefort with a fork, add quark and season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.

3.

Roll out pastry thinly and cut out 4 squares about 10 x 10 cm in size (approximately 4 x 4 inch). Cut about 1 cm (approximately 2/5 inch) wide strips from the remaining pastry. Whisk egg yolks and brush pastry rectangles with yolks. Arrange pastry strips at the edges like a border. Brush edges with egg yolk, place on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (approximately 400°F) for about 15 minutes. Remove from oven and spread with cheese mixture. Top with pears decoratively and press pears down gently. Reduce oven temperature to 180°C (approximately 350°F) and bake for 15 minutes more. Remove from oven and serve.
