Pear Compote with Cheeses

You will find many good-quality commercial compotes or chutneys at the market today, especially those made with fruits such as mango or apple. Either would be a good substitution in this recipe. Other cheeses such as Jarlsberg, mild goat cheese or Manchego would make a nice addition to this arrangement.
