Glossary
Shropshire Blue
This cheese is based on the recipe for Stilton but with annatto to give it its attractive orange colour.
Invented in Scotland, Shropshire Blue is milder than Stilton, but equally creamy in texture and its streaks of blue stand out against the orange interior.
Great on a cheese platter, or whenever you would like to use a mild blue cheese in a recipe, for example in Pizza with blue cheese, chorizo and caramelised onion
