OK, I'll spill the word on this recipe. To serve with very rare Prime Rib (mooooo) and Spinach as you like it:

CREAM OF GORGONZOLA SOUP
You will have to estimate quantities. Be brave. Cook with abandon and the rest will work out.

Start by making a roux, and then add some whole milk. Heat that up till it's all nicely thick. Next add the crumbled Gorgonzola and lower the heat. When it's oozy-goozy (as Emeril would surely say if we made this for him), thin it with WHIPPING CREAM. Add black or white pepper to taste. Perhaps a tad of lemon juice if it is not sharp enough to suit. Then fall into it. I suppose a dollop of sour cream couldn't hurt as a garnish, with a few artsy-fartsy chives. A biscuit/scone or two would not be amiss. NOT crackers.

A good red wine with the above meal will make you scream as would one orgasm too many. This meal is definitely in the Rorty section of the Grub Book. Add the leftover spinsch to the leftover soup if you have not consumed it all, and you can have either a dip or another soup. Maybe some chopped cooked potato.
