Yorkshire blue

Yorkshire Blue is a traditional, vegetarian, blue cheese made from sheep's milk. This cheese was created by Judy Bell who used traditional methods dating back to the early Yorkshire cheeses of the eleventh century. There are several versions of the cheese depending on the maturation period. When young, the cheese is crumbly and flaky, but maturity brings softness and a more pronounced taste. The affinage usually takes eight to ten weeks and the fat content is 48%.
