A cheese grater and a wedge of frozen blue cheese feature in this top-secret method for creamy blue cheese dressing. The grated cheese blends in perfectly as opposed to larger chunks which just sink to the bottom.
Ingredients
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup sour cream
- ¾ cup buttermilk
- 1 teaspoon crushed garlic
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon dry mustard
- ½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
- ½ teaspoon white sugar
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 4 ounces frozen blue cheese, grated
Directions
Step 1
Place mayonnaise, sour cream, and buttermilk in a bowl. Add garlic, black pepper, dry mustard, salt, sugar, cayenne, and Worcestershire sauce. Whisk together thoroughly.
Step 2
Mix grated blue cheese into the cream base a little at a time to ensure it is evenly incorporated and doesn't clump.
Step 3
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours (preferably overnight) to consolidate the flavors.
Cook’s Note:
Using this technique produces a dressing exploding with the funky goodness of whichever blue-veined cheese you decide to use. I used a Maytag blue cheese, but any of the world's great blues, like Roquefort or Stilton, will work beautifully. I hope you give this great method a try soon. Enjoy!
