Expert Tips

Roquefort is a blue cheese that has been enjoyed since Roman times. Made from sheep’s milk, this “king of cheeses” is aged for at least 3 months in limestone caverns near the Roquefort village in southwestern France.

Eating untoasted walnuts is like eating untoasted bread—there's no comparison! To toast nuts, cook them in an ungreased heavy skillet over medium-low heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently until browning begins, then stirring constantly until you can smell the toasted aroma.
