Blue cheese infused butter and butter infused blue cheese

Recipe for butter infused blue cheeese.

This combined recipe is very simple, but does need some elapsed time to bring it to perfection.

Take 1 pound of unsalted butter, and one pound of your favorite blue cheese, Maytag Blue,Roqueforte,or Stilton perhaps.


Cut the butter into 1/4 to 1/3 inch slices and cut the blue cheese the same way.

Interleave the slices, butter-cheese-butter-cheese until all two pounds are combined.



Wrap tightly in wax paper, and leave in the refrigerator for at least a week, up to one month.

At this time, separate the butter and the blue cheese and recombine into separate 1 lb loaves. It will be a bit messy, but don't worry about it.

The blue cheese will have a lovely softened, buttery mildness.

The butter will have a tangy, salty, nutty edge - perfect for sauteeing mushrooms for steak!
