Savory Cheesecake with Pear and Onion Jam

To make Cheesecake: Heat oven to 325°F (160°C). Prepare a 9-inch springform pan by wrapping aluminum foil around base and outside of pan.

In large food processor, combine cream cheese, Asiago cheese and Blue cheese. Process until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes.

Add eggs, whipping cream and a pinch of white pepper. Process until smooth, 1 minute.

Pour cheese mixture into springform pan. Place springform pan in roasting pan; fill around cheesecake pan with one inch warm water.

Bake 40 to 50 minutes or until top of cheesecake is golden brown and center is set.

Cool completely; remove aluminum foil and side of pan.

Serve cheesecake at room temperature with Pear Onion Jam.

To make Jam: In 10-inch skillet, heat oil over high heat; add onions. Cook, stirring constantly, until onions begin to brown. Reduce heat; continue simmering, stirring constantly, until onion is caramelized.

Add all remaining ingredients. Continue cooking, stirring constantly, until pears are crisply tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Pour glaze over pear and onion mixture. Stir until well-mixed; cool. Serve jam at room temperature.
