Our suggestion
Blue Stilton is such a versatile cooking cheese, it is equally at home in a pear and walnut salad as in a rich sauce for a centrepiece cut of meat. The classic Port & Stilton combo is certainly a winner, though try the King of the Blues with a apricot tinged dessert wine or a sweet sherry
