Description

This dressing combines crumbled blue cheese with mayonnaise, sour cream, and lemon juice for a creamy, tangy, and slightly sharp flavor. Its smooth texture and bold taste make it an excellent pairing for fresh greens, crispy wings, or roasted vegetables.


Ingredients

  • Blue Cheese (100g, crumbled): The star ingredient, provides bold flavor.
  • Mayonnaise (4 tbsp): Adds creaminess to the dressing.
  • Sour Cream (4 tbsp): Balances the richness with a tangy note.
  • Lemon Juice (1 tbsp): Adds freshness and a zesty flavor.
  • Garlic (1 clove, minced): Optional, for a hint of savory depth.
  • Salt and Pepper (to taste)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the base

In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, and lemon juice. Whisk until smooth and creamy.

Step 2: Add the blue cheese

Gently fold in the crumbled blue cheese, mashing some of the pieces with a fork to distribute the flavor while keeping some chunks intact for texture.

Step 3: Season the dressing

Stir in the minced garlic (if using) and season with salt and pepper to taste. Add a splash of buttermilk if you prefer a thinner consistency.

Step 4: Chill and serve

Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dressing for at least 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled as a salad dressing, dip, or sauce.
