The Best Ever Homemade Chunky Blue Cheese Dressing
Description
The Best Ever Homemade Chunky Blue Cheese Dressing starts by letting milk and white vinegar sit briefly to acidify, then mixing in crumbled blue cheese which is mashed to combine partially for a chunky texture. It's then blended with sour cream, mayonnaise, white wine vinegar, sugar, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt to balance sharpness and richness. The dressing’s creamy but uneven texture highlights the blue cheese.
This dressing is ideal as a dip or salad dressing, lending a pungent and tangy element to dishes. It should be refrigerated at least 4 hours before serving to allow flavors to meld and the dressing to thicken.
The recipe notes that buttermilk can replace the milk and vinegar mixture, and the dressing keeps sealed in the fridge up to 30 days. Nutritional info per serving is provided.
