Auvergne has the greatest number of the AOC cheeses France. Cantal, Salers, Saint-Nectaire, Fourme d' Ambert, Montbrison and Bleu d’Auvergne all make up this region’s cheeseboard. Production of Bleu d’Auvergne is centred around the small town of Riom-ès-Mountains, located at the heart Cantal mountains and has been made since the 19th Century, but waited until 1975 before being granted its AOC status. Bleu d’Auvergne is often viewed as a simple style cheese, partly because a high percentage of production takes place on an industrial scale. Yet, sourcing a cheese made up high in the mountains on a smaller scale and applying a little love and care, i.e. affinage, it blossoms into a rich, strong tasting cheese with a luxurious, velvety texture. The moist nutty flavour and beautiful melting quality of the cheese makes it perfect for cooking; crumbling over salads and vegetable dishes, and stuffing into poultry. An extremely versatile cheese.
