How It’s Made

When you prepare the dressing, the most vital thing you should keep in mind is, the cheese used here should be of the finest quality blue cheese. The recipe begins with blending of blue cheese (half of 1c. blue cheese), butter milk (2/3c.), mustard (1tbsp), and black pepper (1tsp) and this has to continue till all the ingredients are mixed well and creamy enough. Buttermilk is included in the ingredients as it makes the cheese extra creamy and smooth. While this blending process goes on, you need to add vinegar (2tsp).

The rest of the blue cheese (left 1/2c.) is then disintegrated in a different container and the blended dressing is added with it and mixed well. Once this is done, the rest of the steps are just like icing on the cake.
Required amount of salt and vinegar are added as per the taste one prefers. Seasoning can also be done and some lemon juice can be added too. If you want to make the dressing more smooth and thin, you can put some extra butter milk in it. You will get around 1 ½ c. dressing from this preparation. As mentioned earlier, refrigeration of the dressing is an essential part before serving.

There’s also other preparations of it, where instead of buttermilk; sour cream and mayonnaise is used with vegetable oil. Apart from this, chopped pimiento can be added to it as well. However, no matter what the additional ingredients are, if the process and the cheese are perfect, you will never have to compromise with the taste. So, now as you have the recipe and procedure, why not start with a blue cheese dressing preparation, and make it a part of your next snack or meal.
