BLUE CHEESE DRESSING



Blue Cheese Dressing image

I tasted this tangy blue cheese dressing for the first time at a friend's house. She gave me the recipe, and now I make it every week. I always keep some in my refrigerator. This homemade recipe tastes much better than bottled blue cheese dressing and it's a snap to make. -Barbara Nowakowski, North Tonawanda, New York

UNIVERSALLY USEFUL BLUE CHEESE DRESSING



Universally Useful Blue Cheese Dressing image

Provided by Nigella Lawson : Food Network

Time 5m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 ounces (1 1/2 cups) crumbled blue cheese
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce (recommended: Lea and Perrins)
1 teaspoon steak sauce (recommended: A1)
1/3 cup buttermilk
3 tablespoons whole milk
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar, good white wine vinegar, or white balsamic vinegar

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.

BLUE CHEESE DRESSING

This rich dressing spikes through the creamy goodness and answers that "why doesn't my dressing ever taste this good?" question. This recipe works as well with Mini Buffalo Chicken Balls as it does ladled over a thick wedge of iceberg lettuce topped with a few olives, carrot shavings, and crumbled bacon to create a more-than-satisfying classic salad. This dressing will keep up to five days in the fridge.
