Fromage Blue
Bleu d’Auvergne is a French blue cheese from the Auvergne region, made from pasteurized cow’s milk. It has a soft, creamy texture and a well-distributed marbling of blue veins. Compared to sharper blue cheeses like Roquefort, Bleu d’Auvergne is more approachable, with a salty, lightly spiced flavor that balances beautifully with the creaminess of the cheese.
