What is Blue Cheese?

Blue cheese is made by adding specific molds to the cheese during production, which creates its characteristic blue veins and strong flavor. Varieties include Roquefort and Gorgonzola.

Making Blue Cheese

To make blue cheese, start with milk, add cultures, and introduce the mold. After curdling, the cheese is pierced to allow air to circulate, promoting mold growth.

Pairing Blue Cheese

Blue cheese pairs well with sweet wines, fruits, and nuts, making it a versatile addition to cheese boards.
