Moulded cheeses are recognized delicacies. It gives them a special taste, unique aroma and piquancy. France or Italy is called the birthplace of such a delicacy, but I must say, today we have learned to cook a true gourmet delicacy just as well. Belarusian cheese "Rocforti" with blue mold is an example of this. It is produced by a well-known butter and cheese plant in the country, which is famous for the high quality of its products.

Features

Cheese with blue mold is considered more exotic and refined in taste than their "brothers" with white mold or without it at all. Despite the fact that this product is still a delicacy of true gourmets and connoisseurs, Roqueforti cheese with blue mold from the Belarusian plant is gaining momentum in popularity. It is being prepared for quite a long time using the latesttechnologies. And production began with small capacities (only one ton of product).

Initially, this delicacy was brought into the country from abroad, but today blue cheese ("Rocforti") is produced nearby, it can be bought in the nearest supermarket. Moreover, it is important that the products are much cheaper than foreign counterparts.

Blue mold

If white mold cheeses are heads surrounded by microscopic settlements of fungi, then blue mold cheeses are a product riddled with them. Mold penetrates the structure, and this is why the product turns out to be so specific in taste. For production, it is necessary to observe special conditions, humidity, microclimate.

In order for the mold to be properly distributed inside the cheese head, it is pierced with special needles. It is very important that the cheese is not overexposed. Otherwise, you can be left without it at all, since the mold is able to "eat" the product from the inside as a whole.

Nutritional value

Rocforti cheese with blue mold is famous not only for its unusual taste, but also for its high calorie content. If you are on a diet or adhere to proper nutrition, then you should feast on this product with care. One hundred grams of this cheese contains about 330-360 kilocalories.

Reviews

Judging by the comments of customers, they are satisfied with the product. Only small triangular packaging is not encouraging. I wish there was more cheese, because it is so tasty. According to reviews, Roqueforti blue cheese is cheaper than foreign counterparts, which is also a big plus for buyers.

Consumers also note the unusual, but very pleasant taste of the product. It is good that on the packaging you can find all the information that the buyer is interested in (about the manufacturer, the cow's milk used and penicillium roqueforti, etc.). The composition is completely harmless, without unnecessary impurities, preservatives and flavorings.
