Blue Cheese Dressing and Dip

When you purchase blue cheese, it's always best to purchase a piece, rather than crumbles. The rounded edge is often not as crumbly as the area nearer the point which has more veining. I use the outer rounded edge for melting and chop the inner portion.

What you need

  1. 3/4 cup light sour cream
  2. 1/4-1/3 cup unsweetened bottled mayonnaise
  3. Dash Worcestershire sauce
  4. 1/4 tsp grated fresh garlic
  5. 1/4 tsp dried mustard
  6. 1/2-1 tsp onion powder
  7. 4 oz. blue cheese, divided
  8. 1-2 Tbl balsamic vinegar
  9. 2-3 Tbl olive oil
  10. Plenty of fresh ground black pepper

How to make it

  1. In a mixing bowl, thoroughly combine sour cream, mayo, Worcestershire, garlic, mustard and onion powder
  2. Cut off about 1 oz of the blue cheese and put into a microwavable dish. Heat on high for 10-20 seconds to melt
  3. Chop remaining 3 oz. cheese into small pieces
  4. Add both melted and chopped cheese to sour cream mixture and blend well
  5. Add vinegar and olive oil and stir to incorporate
  6. Chill several hours or overnight
  7. Add black pepper and taste to asjust seasoning
  8. Let stand at room temperature briefly before serving

We love to use this as a dip for raw broccoli. Also delicious on burgers or any greens salad.
