Ingredients

  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • Pinch Diamond Crystal kosher salt
  • Pinch black pepper
  • Pinch garlic powder
  • 2 ounces crumbled blue cheese

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a small bowl, mix the sour cream and mayonnaise.
  2. Mix in the salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  3. Add the blue cheese crumbles and mix them in thoroughly. Press on them to help extract their flavor into the dip.
  4. If you'd like to thin the dip out and use it as a salad dressing, stir in 1-2 tablespoons of water. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a thick and creamy dressing, it's best to use full-fat versions of the ingredients. It's also a good idea, if the sour cream has some water on top, to carefully pour it out before using.
  • You can keep this dressing in the fridge, in an airtight container, for up to five days. Give it another stir before serving, and add a bit more water if it has thickened too much while stored.
