About This Product

PENICILLIUM ROQUEFORTI Blue Cheese Mold

Make hundreds of your own blue cheese at home with a properly stored packet of Penicillium Roqueforti.

Each direct set freeze-dried packet comes in 10 doses or 2D packets  (repackaged) for easy hobby and home usage without the hefty commercial price tag.

Vegans: Choose the PRB6 strain. The other strains contain lactose and are not Vegan.  ORDER LARGE Bottle PRB6 on this separate link, or Small Bottle PRB6 with this link.

Each of these strains of Penicillium Roqueforti culture create a different texture and taste in the penicillium cheese. Choose between the following:

  • PS has a medium-fast growth rate, a mild blue taste and a blue-green color. Sometimes used in conjunction with penicillium candidum (especially HP6).
  • PA Strain has a piquant aroma, extended shelf life, medium-fast growing rate and slightly tough consistency. Used to make mild Blue cheeses such as Roquefort and is a great choice for hard blue cheeses. 
  • PV Strain grows quickly and has a creamy consistency, strong tolerance to salt and a piquant aroma. Make Blue cheese including Roquefort, strong Gorgonzola and Danablu.

    Storage

    Posted by Unknown on 6th Feb 2017

    Is there any way to store it in a spray? Note from Steve: this type of mold is best stored dry in a sealed container with little air and in your freezer. You can dissolve a small amount in a little clean water, allow for the mold to dissolve well before spraying onto your cheese.
