There are many types of cheese, and blue cheese is one of the more distinct. It has a color and flavor that is not for everyone, but those who love it can’t seem to get enough. Its creamy texture and sharp, salty taste make it ideal for everything from dressings and dips to burgers, and there is nothing better than crumbles of blue cheese on a salad. However, it does not last very long if you use the wrong storage method. Unlike other cheeses, there are three ways to store this cheese, the counter, fridge, and freezer.
We provide cheesemaker information on the different types of blue cheese, how their appearance and flavor differ, and how to preserve them. The best way to store bleu cheese is to keep it at room temperature in a grotto, but it’s a good idea to keep it refrigerated if you cannot eat it fast enough. Learn how to save your cheese in the fridge by wrapping it in wax paper and seal it in bags to freeze it for longer preservation.
