Description: A popular blue cheese with a great history, Gorgonzola has been produced for more than 800 years in Northern Italy. During production, the creamy cheese is pierced with needles, causing the formation of the telltale greenish-blue veins. The mold lends a spicy, sharp flavor to the creamy cheese.
Gorgonzola is generally a crumbly cheese, but can also have a smoother texture. Its taste ranges from semi-mild to sharp.
