How to Freeze Gorgonzola Cheese
Gorgonzola cheese is a white or pale yellow cheese made from unpasteurized cow's or goat's milk. It is typically aged for three to six months, during which time holes are poked into it to allow its signature greenish-blue mold to grow and flourish. The wonderfully enhancing tartness of Gorgonzola is perfect for salads, appetizers and pasta dishes, so it's a good idea to keep it on hand. Fortunately, this robust cheese is simple to freeze, and, if stored properly, will maintain its famous indulgently pungent flavor.
