Blue Cheese

Blue Cheese is a generic term used to describe cheese produced with either cow’s milk, sheep’s milk, and goat’s milk; however, most Blue Cheeses are made from cow’s milk.
It generally has a sharp and sometimes piquant flavor and a characteristic aroma. This cheese is often quite salty.

Some blue cheese, like Roquefort from France or Gorgonzola from Italy, is ripened in caves as the cave’s stable and moist conditions impart a peculiar and characteristic character to the cheese.

Blue cheese is:

• Low in fat and high in sodium content.
• Excellent source of protein and a very good source of phosphorous.
• An excellent source of calcium.
