Crumbled Blue Cheese is a tangy and creamy cheese characterized by its distinctive blue veins, formed through the aging process with cultures of Penicillium mold. Originating from European cuisines, with varieties such as Roquefort from France and Gorgonzola from Italy, it has become a flavorful staple worldwide. Primarily made from cow, sheep, or goat’s milk, it is high in protein and a good source of calcium, supporting bone health. However, it’s also high in sodium and fat, particularly saturated fat, so moderation is key for healthy consumption. Blue cheese adds bold flavor to salads, dressings, and dips, showcasing its versatility. While appreciated for its unique taste and nutritional benefits, individuals sensitive to dairy or monitoring sodium should be mindful of portion sizes when including it in their diet.
