Here, we take a look at the classic French fromage: Roquefort cheese. Roquefort is an amazing blue cheese made from sheep's milk. It is produced in the Aveyron department of southern France. Roquefort is rich, creamy and salty in flavor; it is perfect with Muscat grapes, figs, and walnuts. It is often served on Canal du Midi barge cruises. There is a wide variety of blue cheeses from around the world, and within France. They are made by including additional cultures of edible molds that give the characteristic blue veins running through it. The flavor varies with the cheese from mild to strong, along with its aroma, as well as ranging from sweet to sharp to salty. How it is made, which type of milk, and even the process order can greatly alter the outcome. Roquefort is a type of blue cheese, specifically made from sheep's milk in Roquefort-sur-Soulzon in the south of France. It differs from other blue cheeses in the type of milk and how it is made. In contrast, Italy's Gorgonzola and Britain's Stilton are made from cow's milk. The varying types of milk and processes result in very different and distinct flavors. Traditionally, Danish blue cheeses are used for blue cheese dressing as they are a little drier and crumblier in texture. Learn more at https://bargecharters.com/regions/france-cheese-roquefort.html
