INGREDIENTS YOU NEED
EXPERT TIP: We find that using a good-quality block of blue cheese is better than purchasing the pre-crumbled blue cheese. The end result is a creamier texture for the dressing because the pre-crumbled variety is drier than a block.
In addition to the block of blue cheese, you'll need
- Mayonnaise - homemade is great, but a quality store-bought will work, too
- Sour cream - adds a little tartness
- Buttermilk - this makes it even more creamy
- Lemon juice - fresh is best
- White wine vinegar - a little acidity is so good
- Fresh parsley, we love the color and the peppery taste
- Fresh onion and fresh garlic - neither overpower, just elevate the taste
- Salt and pepper - to your own liking
HOMEMADE BLUE CHEESE DRESSING FAQs
-
- What is the best kind of blue cheese to use? Here are our favorites: Stilton, Maytag, Gorgonzola, and Cabrales.
- How long will it stay fresh? The dressing will stay deliciously fresh in your refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. You can freeze for up to 2 months.
- Can I make it light? Of course! You won't get the same luxurious taste, but you can substitute non-fat Greek yogurt for the mayonnaise and even the sour cream. Again, the taste will not be quite the same, and it will be a little less creamy, but it's still very good.
- Are there health risks with homemade mayonnaise? Our homemade mayo contains raw eggs. Therefore, very young children, the elderly, and anyone with a compromised immune system should take caution before consuming. Consult your doctor if you're unsure.
