Blue cheese dressing is a creamy, bold, and tangy condiment that is perfect for salads, burgers, and sandwiches. It can be made with a variety of ingredients, but the key to a thick blue cheese dressing is to use a good quality blue cheese. The best blue cheeses for dressing are creamy and have a strong flavor. Some popular choices include Gorgonzola, Roquefort, and Stilton. You can also add other ingredients to your dressing, such as mayonnaise, sour cream, buttermilk, or yogurt to achieve the desired thickness and flavor.

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.
