Maytag Blue Cheese Salad Dressing is a classic American dressing that is perfect for salads, sandwiches, and dips. It is creamy, tangy, and flavorful, with a distinctive blue cheese flavor. The dressing is made with a combination of mayonnaise, sour cream, buttermilk, blue cheese crumbles, and seasonings. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. This article provides two variations of the dressing: a classic version and a lightened-up version. The classic version is made with full-fat mayonnaise and sour cream, while the lightened-up version uses low-fat mayonnaise and sour cream. Both versions are delicious and easy to make.

MAYTAG BLUE CHEESE SALAD DRESSING
This is from Kincaids Restaurant in Redondo Beach, Ca. When I tried it at the restaurant, I had to have the recipe, which I found on the web. It is the best blue cheese salad dressing ever !!! The Maytag Blue Cheese is so creamy and delicious, like no other. It's not cheap, but worth every dime if you can find it. If you can't find it, you can substitute Danish Blue Cheese, or your personal favorite. It should be refrigerated overnight. I'm guessing on the servings amount, it makes about 1-1/2 cups. Serve it over iceberg lettuce wedges with your choice of other veggies, i.e tomatoes, cucumbers, etc. and I hope you enjoy it as much as we do !!!

CHEF JOHN'S CREAMY BLUE CHEESE DRESSING
A cheese grater and a wedge of frozen blue cheese is the secret behind a perfect creamy blue cheese dressing. Those larger chunks sink to the bottom and don't become one with sauce as they do with grated cheese.

- Serve the dressing with a variety of salads: Maytag Blue Cheese Dressing is a versatile dressing that can be served with a variety of salads. It is especially good with salads that contain greens, such as romaine lettuce or arugula.
- Use the dressing as a marinade: Maytag Blue Cheese Dressing can also be used as a marinade for chicken, steak, or fish. The dressing will add flavor and moisture to the meat.
Conclusion:
Maytag Blue Cheese Dressing is a delicious and versatile dressing that can be used on a variety of salads and as a marinade. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
