HOMEMADE BLUE CHEESE DRESSING (BETTER THAN STORE-BOUGHT)



Homemade Blue Cheese Dressing (Better Than Store-Bought) image

This easy homemade blue cheese dressing is extra creamy and perfect for tossing with salad or used as a dipping sauce. Depending on what you plan to use the blue cheese dressing for, you might consider adding a little milk or water. Without it, the dressing is thick, which makes it perfect for dipping. If you want it to be pourable like a salad dressing, a splash of milk or water is the key.

Categories     side-dish

Time 12m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 ounces good Roquefort cheese, chopped
1 cup mayonnaise
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons tarragon vinegar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 head iceberg lettuce, cut in quarters, or 2 heads Bibb lettuce, cut in half
Heirloom tomatoes, or other good tomatoes

Steps:

  • Place the cheese, mayonnaise, heavy cream, vinegar, salt and pepper in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Process until smooth.
  • Place a wedge of lettuce on each serving plate with 2 slices of tomato. Pour enough dressing over the lettuce to moisten. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Make sure the blue cheese is at room temperature before using, as this will help it to emulsify more easily.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • To make a thicker dressing, add more blue cheese or mayonnaise.
  • To make a thinner dressing, add more milk or buttermilk.
  • Season the dressing to taste with salt and pepper.
