This is different from most of the Roquefort Dressings I found here. No vinegar, and very thick. A creamy dressing! I prefer this over an iceburg wedge, with tomato garnish.

Yield Makes 6 first-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

For dressing
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 large shallot, minced
1 tablespoon Sherry wine vinegar
1 large garlic clove, minced
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/3 cup crumbled Roquefort cheese
3 tablespoons whipping cream
For salad
6 medium beets, tops trimmed
3 hearts of romaine lettuce, quartered lengthwise, ends left intact
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 watercress bunch, thick stems trimmed
3/4 cup walnut halves, toasted

Steps:

  • Make dressing:
  • Whisk first 5 ingredients in small bowl to blend. Fold in Roquefort cheese and cream. Season dressing to taste with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
  • Make salad:
  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Wrap beets tightly in foil. Bake until tender, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Cool beets; peel and cut each into wedges.
  • Arrange 2 lettuce quarters crosswise on each of 6 large plates. Surround lettuce on each plate with beet wedges. Top with some onion slices and watercress sprigs. Drizzle with dressing, sprinkle with walnuts and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dressing.
  • Make sure your blue cheese is at room temperature before using it. This will help it blend more easily.
  • If you don't have any buttermilk, you can use plain yogurt instead. Just add a little bit of lemon juice or vinegar to taste.
  • If you want a thicker dressing, you can add more blue cheese or mayonnaise.
  • You can also add other ingredients to your dressing, such as chopped walnuts, crumbled bacon, or diced celery.
  • Taste your dressing before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed.
