Molds are all around us. They are microorganisms of the fungal family, grow on a host and feed on it.
There are molds that can save a person's life and ones that are deadly. Some improve the taste of cheese and wine, others make food poisonous.
Useful mold called noble, it improves the taste of products. There is blue, white and red mold, and three special types are used for food. Once they developed in the natural environment, they are now selected in the laboratory. The products are infected with the best strains in a specific amount. Products can be found, mainly cheeses, with naturally developed molds.
The most popular and expensive mold cheeses are the blue cheeses. These include the French Roquefort, the Italian Gorgonzola, the English Stilton, the Bulgarian green cheese and others.
Roquefort is a sheep's cheese with a soft yellow color, rich aroma and light creamy taste. It matures from 4 to 9 months before it becomes edible
Gorgonzola is the Italian equivalent of Roquefort in terms of competitiveness. It is made from cow's or goat's milk, and sometimes as a mixture of both. This cheese is very fatty, almost half of its content falls on its fat content. Its bark is thick and reddish in color from the mold.
English Stilton is made from cow's milk. For 8 kilograms of this cheese goes 10 times more milk. It is available not only in blue cheese, but also as white.
The Bulgarian green mold cheese from the Teteven region is a sheep cheese with an incredible taste and aroma, which is made according to a recipe preserved in the region for hundreds of years. Only two other places in Europe make green mold cheese, which makes it an extremely valuable food product.
Molds are also used to make some types of wine. There are certain varieties of grapes, which, if harvested at the right time when they contain a certain amount of noble molds, produce excellent dessert wines. Botrytis cinerea improves the taste of grapes by affecting their sugars. The Cladosporium celery mold has a beneficial effect on the taste of the wine while it matures in the cellar.
With the help of some types of noble mold, salami, soy sauces and beer are made. Most foods are made with the penicillin mold, which is associated with the drug penicillin, defined as the greatest life-saving tool in modern medicine.
