Blue Cheese Dressing

Blue Cheese • Buttermilk — Today's Special • USA

Today's Special No. 3 — the steakhouse and buffalo-wing dressing: real blue cheese crumbles folded into a buttermilk base, half mashed in for flavor, half left chunky for bite.

Ingredients

• 50 g — Blue cheese crumbles (1/3 cup)
• 180 ml — Buttermilk (3/4 cup)
• 55 g — Mayonnaise (1/4 cup)
• 15 g — Sour cream (1 Tbsp)
• 2 g — Garlic powder (1/2 tsp)
• 2 g — Fine sea salt (1/4 tsp)
• 1 g — Black pepper (1/4 tsp)

Step-by-Step Method

1. Mash half the cheese. Half the blue cheese crumbles mashed with a fork into the buttermilk until the base turns pale blue and deeply flavored.
2. Whisk the base. Mayonnaise, sour cream, garlic powder, salt and black pepper whisked in until smooth and pourable.
3. Fold in the chunks. The remaining crumbles folded in whole — those chunks are the whole point of blue cheese dressing.
4. Chill 1 hour. Rest in the fridge so the cheese melts its flavor through the jar. Keeps 5 days refrigerated; stir before serving.
