Blue cheese is a recognized delicacy. She gives them a special taste, unique aroma and piquancy. The homeland of such goodies is called either France or Italy, but I must say, and today we have learned how to cook a true gourmet delicacy no worse. The Belarusian cheese "Rockforti" with blue mold is an example of this. It is produced by a well-known creamery in the country, which is famous for the high quality of its products.
Features
Cheeses with blue mold are considered more exotic and refined in taste than their "counterparts" with white mold or without it at all. Despite the fact that this product is still a delicacy of true gourmets and experts, the Rockforti cheese with blue mold from the Belarusian plant is gaining momentum. It has been preparing for a fairly long time using the latest technology. And production began with small capacities (only one ton of product).
Initially, this delicacy was imported into the country from abroad, but today blue cheese (Rockforti) is produced nearby, it can be bought at the nearest supermarket. Moreover, it is important that the products are much cheaper than foreign counterparts.
Blue mold
If cheeses with white mold are heads surrounded by microscopic settlements of mushrooms, then cheeses with blue mold are a product penetrated through them. Mold penetrates the structure, it is from this product that it turns out so specific in taste. For production it is necessary to observe special conditions, humidity, microclimate.
So that the mold is correctly distributed inside the cheese head, it is pierced with special needles. It is very important that the cheese is not overexposed. Otherwise, you can stay without it at all, since mold is able to “eat” the product from the inside out.
The nutritional value
Rockforti cheese with blue mold is famous not only for its unusual taste, but also for its high calorie content. If you follow a diet or adhere to proper nutrition, then this product should be enjoyed with care. In one hundred grams of such cheese about 330-360 calories.
Rockforti contains more than thirty grams of fat, two grams of carbohydrates, almost 19 grams of protein and a huge amount of useful vitamins and minerals inherent in dairy products. In Belarusian products such as blue cheese, there will be calcium and phosphorus, there will be magnesium and zinc, sodium and iodine. In addition, this product contains melanin, vitamins C, K, PP, B, milk sugar, tryptophan, etc.
Reviews
Judging by the comments of customers, they are satisfied with the product. Only a small triangular package is not happy. I would like to have more cheese, because it is so tasty. According to reviews, Rockforti cheese with blue mold is cheaper than foreign counterparts, which is also a big plus for buyers.
Consumers note an unusual, but very pleasant taste of the product. It’s good that on the packaging you can find all the information that interests the buyer (about the manufacturer used by cow's milk and rocforti penicillium, etc.). The composition is completely harmless, without unnecessary impurities, preservatives and flavorings.
