Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- Mash together cheese, bread crumbs, walnuts, and pepper to taste with a fork. Freeze mixture just until firm, about 10 minutes.
- Scoop out center of bottom of each pear with large end of a melon-ball cutter, then continue to remove core to make a 1/4-cup cavity. Fill each cavity evenly with cheese mixture and seal bottom with a small piece of bread.
- Roll out pastry 1/16 inch thick into a 15-inch square on a lightly floured surface with a floured rolling pin. Cut dough into quarters to make 4 equal pieces.
- Stand 1 pear in center of a pastry square and brush pear all over with egg. Bring 1 corner of pastry up toward top of pear, pressing it against pear to adhere. Repeat with adjacent corner, then generously brush extending pastry fold with egg before pressing closely against side of pear. Repeat process with remaining 2 corners. Fold top points of pastry 1/4 inch down (see photo) and brush with egg. Transfer wrapped pear to a buttered large shallow (1-inch-deep) baking pan and chill while wrapping remaining pears (make sure pears are 5 inches apart in baking pan).
- Chill wrapped pears 30 minutes.
- Bake pears in middle of oven 20 minutes, or until fruit is just tender when pierced with a knife and pastry is golden and cooked through (pastry will shrink a bit). Cool pears at least 15 minutes before serving warm or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Trim the stems from the beets. Place the beets on a rack and bake them in their skins for about an hour, or until they are tender when tested with a fork. Cool and slip off their skins.
- While the beets are cooling, place the walnuts on a baking sheet and toast them in the oven for about 10 minutes. Remove, cool and chop coarsely.
- Place the watercress leaves and the endive in a bowl. Whisk together the walnut oil, vinegar, salt and pepper and pour the dressing over the watercress and endive. Toss thoroughly and correct seasoning.
- Slice the beets; core and slice the pears. Divide the salad among four plates. Arrange slices of beets and pears on each salad plate. Crumble the Roquefort over the top, sprinkle with walnuts and a little more pepper and serve.
