What Can I Make With Roquefort Blue Cheese?

[Caleson]

As a gift I received 1/4 lb of Roquefort sheep's milk blue cheese, which is quite potent. I've never used it before and thought of incorporating it into a macaroni and cheese dish. Does anyone have any better ideas or a particular method that would work best for my idea? I keep putting it off.

Thanks.

Here are some things I came upon with a search:

"Blue Macaroni and Cheese"

"Blue Onion Bistro's Macaroni and Blue Cheese With Chives"

"Macaroni and Blue Cheese"

I also have a Blue Cheese Potato Salad that is to die for (made with Hellman's Mayo and fresh snipped chives and walnuts) but is apparently not from this web site.

This is not mac and cheese but it's also quite good-a dip:

"Blue Cheese Walnut Spread"

Blue Cheese salad dressing is really good.

Roquefort is great paired with pears.

Blue Cheese never crossed my palate in any form that I liked until about 5 years ago when I tasted Maytag Blue Cheese. Became a convert. I think quality is essential with blue cheese/roquefort.

Thanks for all the quick responses, everyone! I think I'll try one of the macaroni and blue cheese recipes tomorrow. I've tasted blue cheese before but this particular kind tasted far stronger than what I was expecting, so I wasn't sure if it was an unusual variation or something.

Thanks again.

A lot of sheep's and goat's cheeses to me are stronger. I often say, as if you licked a goat or sheep. Yes, well. But eating is part adventure.
