The unique characteristics of Shropshire Blue
Shropshire Blue is an English cheese that immediately draws attention. What makes this cheese so special is the fantastic contrast between the warm orange-brown paste and the bright blue veins that run through it. The striking orange colour is obtained in a 100 percent natural way by adding annatto, a plant extract derived from the seeds of the achiote tree.
The flavour of Shropshire Blue is often compared to the famous Blue Stilton, but is just a touch milder, sweeter and creamier. The Penicillium roqueforti blue mould culture gives the cheese its characteristic savoury and slightly tangy flavour, while the soft texture means it almost melts on the tongue. What is more, the cheese is made entirely with vegetarian rennet, making it perfectly suitable for vegetarians.
How do you cut a whole cheese?
Cutting a whole cheese wheel may seem like a challenge, but with the right technique it is very simple. Use a professional cheese knife with two handles or cut the cheese step by step into manageable wedges. View the image below for the best way to divide your cheese wheel, so that you always get beautiful, even pieces.
