ITEM WEIGHT: 0.5 lbs

Ingredient(s): Raw cow milk (part skim), cheese culture, salt, enzymee
Storage Tips: Refrigerate any cheeses and meats in a drawer close to where most of the produce is kept. After each time that you slice the cheese, re-wrap it with fresh plastic wrap to extend the shelf life. While some chefs will freeze a slice of blue and then grate it over a salad before serving, Chef's Mandala doesn't recommend freezing cheeses in general.

For a cheese plate pair with a goat's milk Humboldt Fog and a sheep's milk Ossau Iraty. Or pair with a Swiss Emmentaler and French Reblochon. Pairings that work include a dry white or sparkling wine, some dried apricots, crackers, nuts and pickles.
