Blue Cheese Dressing and Dip
Contributed by: Melinda
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.
3/4 cup light sour cream
1/4-1/3 cup unsweetened bottled mayonnaise
Dash worcestershire sauce
1/4 tsp grated fresh garlic
1/4 tsp dried mustard
1/2-1 tsp onion powder
4 oz. blue cheese, divided
1-2 Tbl balsamic vinegar
2-3 Tbl olive oil
Plenty of fresh ground black pepper
- In a mixing bowl, thoroughly combine sour cream, mayo, worcestershire, garlic, mustard and onion powder
- Cut off about 1 oz of the blue cheese and put into a microwavable dish. Heat on high for 10-20 seconds to melt
- Chop remaining 3 oz. cheese into small pieces
- Add both melted and chopped cheese to sour cream mixture and blend well
- Add vinegar and olive oil and stir to incorporate
- Chill several hours or overnight
- Add black pepper and taste to asjust seasoning
- 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.
