Yorkshire Pasta Fusilli Blue Cheese, Honey and Walnut Warm Salad

By: @yorkshirepasta

One of my year-round favourite flavour combinations. This recipe is made even more taste bud tantalising by matching the Yorkshire Pasta Company’s Artisan fusilli pasta with Yorkshire Pecorino’s Leeds Blue which cuts beautifully thought the sweet floral notes that the honey brings. This dish can be served cold, just allow your pasta to cool before assembling.
