Blue Cheese

Blue cheese gets its unique flavor from specific types of mold used in its production.

Choose firm blue cheese with a consistent blue veining. Avoid if it smells excessively strong or is too moist.

Store blue cheese in the refrigerator, tightly wrapped in its original packaging or wax paper, and use within one to two weeks. For longer storage, you can freeze it in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to three months, although freezing may alter the texture.
