Hey all, I need your favorite recipes for Blue Cheese Dressing. Thanks.

I just mix mayo with enough buttermilk to get the right

consistency and add crumbled cheese, a little garlic put through a press, maybe a tsp or two of red wine vinegar and a dash of worcestershire sauce. A couple of drops of tabasco is good too.

 
I love blue cheese dressing. Here are some I make. I prefer the recipes that include buttermilk,

but don't always have it on hand, so I have a variety of recipes. If you have Stilton, the first recipe is really good.

processor, adding the cheese last. Pulse until just combined, making sure to
keep the mixture slightly chunky. (Alternatively, stir the ingredients in a
bowl with a wooden spoon or whisk.) Season with the salt, pulsing or
stirring gently to maintain the texture. The consistency should be thick but
pourable. Stir in more buttermilk if the dressing is too thick.

See, C...this is how you and I balance the Tao of Blue Cheese.

You like it.
I hate it.

And the world (or at least Florida) is in harmony.
