Serves: 1 cup
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup blue cheese, crumbled
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the crumbled blue cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Use a fork or whisk to begin breaking down the blue cheese and creating a smooth base.
- Add the fresh lemon juice to the mixture, which will help brighten the flavor and provide a slight tanginess to the dressing.
- Season the dressing with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Start with a small amount and taste, adjusting the seasoning as needed to enhance the blue cheese flavor.
- Gently mix all ingredients until well combined, ensuring the blue cheese is evenly distributed throughout the dressing.
- For best flavor, cover the dressing and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and develop a more complex taste profile.
- Before serving, give the dressing a quick stir. If it seems too thick, you can thin it out with a small amount of milk or buttermilk to reach your desired consistency.
- Store the dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5-7 days.
Tips
