Broiled Tomato Slices Recipe

Why do you recommend Danish Blue Cheese?
A chef in an Atlanta fine restaurant once explained the creamy taste of his blue cheese dressing. He only used Danish blue cheese. The cost is usually about 30-50% higher but it’s quite the treat when experienced. Castello and Boar’s Head are popular brands carried in grocery stores like Publix and Wal-Mart for their Danish Blue Cheese.
