Description
Concentrated, lyophilized starter culture for direct inoculation of milk (DVI). Gives a characteristic flavor, ideal for fresh and soft cheeses, such as Roquefort, Gorgonzola or our native "rokpol".
The culture consists of a pure strain of Penicillium roqueforti.
The mold has a typical blue-green color. It limits the development of undesirable molds, and its enzymes allow to obtain a spicy taste and a creamy consistency of cheese.
