- Tips and Tricks for Success
- Although you can use the blue cheese dressing right away, I recommend making, covering and refrigerating the dressing for at least an hour to allow the flavors to meld together nicely.
- Blue Cheese Dressing Recipe Variations
- Although you can use the blue cheese dressing right away, I recommend making, covering and refrigerating the dressing for at least an hour to allow the flavors to meld together nicely.
- If you make the dressing for a later use give the dressing a quick shake in its bottle or jar, before using, to account for any separation.
- Although the dressing will probably keep for up to 2 weeks, we recommend up to 10 days for quality purposes.
- Our recipe results in a thick and dreamy dressing, but it you would like a thinner dressing (or dip), you can stir in about 1/4-1/3 cup of buttermilk.
- For a slightly healthier alternative you can swap the mayo out for greek yogurt.
- If you don't have a lemon or lemon juice on hand you can replace it with some white or white wine vinegar.
- Other herbs like thyme, dill and parsley also make great additions to this dressing!
