I made this as a trio of sauces to go with some fresh fettucine. I *love* roquefort, although I think this sauce would go well with a danish blue too, it was almost a shame to use the roquefort as it was humblingly expensive. It does taste strong, but once over pasta it is fine; a little extra cream will make it more of a sauce consistency. Mine took some time to blend. Thanks!
