bleu cheese
Veined salad topping
Bleu cheese is an alternative spelling of blue cheese—cheese ripened with cultures of Penicillium mold that create distinctive blue-green veins and a sharp, pungent flavor.
The French spelling appears on menus and packaging, lending continental flair: a wedge of bleu cheese, bleu cheese dressing.
