Gorgonzola, a beloved Italian blue cheese, offers a rich, creamy texture and a distinctive tangy flavor profile. Properly stored, this semi-soft cheese can elevate your culinary creations for weeks.

Storage Time

Best enjoyed within 2-3 weeks of opening when refrigerated; can be frozen for up to 3 months, though texture may change.

Temperature

Keep refrigerated at 0–4°C (32–40°F) to maintain optimal freshness and prevent spoilage.

Freezing

To freeze Gorgonzola cheese, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, then in aluminum foil or a freezer-safe bag to prevent freezer burn. Thaw slowly in the refrigerator overnight. Frozen Gorgonzola is best used in cooked dishes like sauces or gratins, as its texture may become crumbly and less creamy after thawing.

Signs of Spoilage

Unpleasant, ammonia-like smell.
Development of fuzzy, dark mold (beyond the natural blue veins).
Slimy or sticky texture on the surface.
Significant discoloration or drying out.
