Roquefort Papillon

Roquefort Papillon

£6.95

Nobody who has ever eaten cheese needs an introduction to this hugely important French blue cheese but did you know the legend of its discovery: a young farmer was distracted from his ewes' milk cheese sandwich by a beautiful girl walking in the distance. He chased after her and left his meal in a nearby cave. After presumably quite a successful encounter, he returned a few months later, and the mould (Penicillium Roqueforti) had transformed his plain cheese into Roquefort!
