Product Description
Blue cheese originated in France, the first being Roquefort. The techniques for producing blue cheese were perfected over the centuries, during which time the recipe for blue cheese spread across the globe. Monks were instrumental in this global learning, as they brought the secrets of cheesemaking with them in their endeavors. Nowadays, the Cheese Masters at San Ignacio in Santa Fe, Argentina make blue cheese with the same passion and expertise as those before them. Made from rich, creamy pasteurized cow's milk, the blue mold spores which give this cheese its characteristic color and flavor are imported from France. San Ignacio Blue has a soft, creamy and crumbling texture that displays a balanced contrast between its white color and the greenish blue veins. Excellent crumbled over salads or in numerous recipes, San Ignacio Blue is also a delicious snacking cheese when served with fruit and crusty French bread.
