Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 oz Blue cheese (crumbled)
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.25 cup Buttermilk
- 1 tbsp White vinegar
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Onion powder
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, and buttermilk. Mix thoroughly with a whisk until smooth.
Add the white vinegar and Worcestershire sauce to the mixture, stirring until well incorporated.
Season the mixture with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Stir to combine.
Gently fold in the crumbled blue cheese. For a smoother dressing, use a fork to mash some of the blue cheese into the mixture. For a chunkier texture, leave the crumbles intact.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasonings, if necessary, by adding more salt or pepper.
Transfer the dressing to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled as a salad dressing or dipping sauce. Stir well before each use.
