Blue cheese recipes
Blue cheese is a great cooking ingredient that should be complimented rather than overwhelmed. It works as a wonderful, salty flavour enhancer, bringing a real whack of flavour with just a small amount. We love it with contrasting sweet caramelised onions, figs, pears and butternut squash. Try one of our recipes including a classic cauliflower cheese, roasted pear soufflé, broccoli and stilton soup and a gorgonzola risotto.
It works in unusual places too, try the Skint Roofer’s stilton roast potatoes, or a courgette and roquefort pizza for something different from the norm. Brassicas pair wonderfully with the cheese too, so discover our broccoli recipes from salads to gnocchi.
Browse all our blue cheese recipes below, and find something new and different to love.
