- 60 ml buttermilk
- 15 ml white wine vinegar
- 10 ml lemon juice
- 1 tsp garlic powder

Instructions
In a medium bowl, crumble the bleu cheese into small chunks using a fork, leaving some slightly larger pieces for added texture.

Pour in the white wine vinegar and lemon juice, and stir until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Add the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to the mixture. Mix thoroughly to distribute the spices evenly.
