Not exactly a recipe, but it was dinner. Locally (Pennsylvania, US) grown pear, fontina and montegrappa cheeses, an avocado and Montepulciano d'Abruzzo. Slice, pour, eat!

Thanks to those leaving helpful comments - some of them were wonderful.
Oh and also, if you don't see texture on the pear you need to calibrate your monitor.
Shallow DOF as in this image gives a very professional look to an image. Typically shallow DOF directs the viewer's attention to the focused areas and reviewers will ask themselves what is so special about that stem. It is a nice the way you have it curl around the other half of the pear in the background and placment on a cutting board is a good touch.
Very nice macro, but I can barely make out the cheese (if my translation is correct). I quess would like to see more of it since it is part of your title.
Love the composition, but the depth of field is just a bit too shallow in my opinion. Would have like to have seen more of the pear in focus. Still, meets the challenge and looks good. 6.
Wow I love the stem of the pear. It had a great texture and curve to it. The green behind the pear is a little distracting. I assume it is another piece of fruit, but because the color tone is so different from the rest of the photo my eye is drawn to it.
One of my favorite treats. But most of the pear is out of focus and the cheese is missing. (Unless the cheese is that green thing in the background -- I hope not!)
