About Bresse blue cheese

Bresse blue cheese is a blue-veined cheese associated with the Bresse area of France. It is commonly served as a table cheese, eaten with bread, or used where a blue cheese is desired in cooking. The name identifies a regional cheese style, but does not by itself establish a producer, milk treatment, or exact recipe.

It is generally a soft to semi-soft cheese with blue-green veining and a creamy interior; its flavour is savoury, tangy, and characteristic of blue mould, though intensity varies with age and production. Specific texture, rind, and flavour depend on the individual cheese.
