How to Freeze Blue Cheese
Aged, mold-laden blue cheese is versatile and flavor-enhancing. Blue cheese is perfect in salads, pasta dishes, breads, vegetables and even desserts. And though it doesn’t seem as if cheese aged in a damp cave would take well to your freezer, blue cheese is easy to freeze. It freezes quite well, too, which means that you can have it on hand whenever you need it.
