Steps:
- I promised a trio of sauces, but I just had to get this in under the wire. If you like blue cheese - as I, swooningly, do - then know that this, dribbled over sliced, sweet tomatoes along with a torn-off log of baguette is a perfect enough supper just as it is. And you can make a fabulously retro steakhouse-style starter, by cutting a head of iceberg lettuce into wedges and dribbling each crunchy wedge with this plus, perhaps, a scattering of crisp-fried bacon crumbles. And it makes a fabulous dressing to dribble over leftover rare roast beef.
- Put the crumbled cheese into a bowl, add the Worcestershire sauce, steak sauce, buttermilk, milk and the vinegar and mix gently until well combined. Thin if necessary with a little iced water. Chill until needed.
- Make Ahead Note: The dressing will keep for 3 to 4 days in covered container in fridge - store in cold part of fridge rather than in the door.

BEST BLEU CHEESE DRESSING AROUND
I love bleu cheese dressing. I had visited the Spaghetti Factory in Nashville Tenn. several years ago and I had the best bleu cheese dressing that I ever ate. I have searched and searched for that special taste again in dressings. I finally found one that really comes very close. The recipe came from a friend but I changed a few ingredients to fit my taste.

Steps:
- Whisk together buttermilk, sour cream, mayonnaise, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Stir in blue cheese and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Tips:
- Use high-quality blue cheese: The type of blue cheese you use will have a big impact on the flavor of your dressing. Look for a blue cheese that is creamy and has a strong, pungent flavor.
- Let the blue cheese come to room temperature before using: This will help the cheese to soften and blend more easily with the other ingredients.
- Use buttermilk instead of regular milk: Buttermilk will give your dressing a tangy, slightly sour flavor that complements the blue cheese well.
- Add some acidity to the dressing: This could be in the form of lemon juice, vinegar, or even white wine. The acidity will help to balance out the richness of the blue cheese.
- Season the dressing to taste: Be sure to taste the dressing before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs.
Conclusion:
Blue cheese dressing is a versatile condiment that can be used on a variety of dishes, from salads to grilled meats. It is also a popular ingredient in dips and sauces. With its creamy, tangy, and pungent flavor, blue cheese dressing is sure to add a lot of flavor to your next meal.
