Wash the lettuce, tear it into small pieces, and arrange it on a plate. Cut the pear into eighths and core it (you can also peel it if you like). Heat the sugar in a pan and let it caramelize. Deglaze the caramelized sugar with the balsamic vinegar. Add the pear pieces and fry for about 3 minutes. Marinate the salad with olive oil or pumpkin seed oil, salt and pepper, and a little balsamic vinegar. Sprinkle the Gorgonzola, broken into small pieces, over the salad. Finally, arrange the pears on top of the salad. Bread goes well as a side dish.
