This blue cheese dressing is creamy and packed with great flavor. Using a quality blue cheese is the key to making a few ingredients sing. It doesn’t take long to whip up this dressing but we like to let it sit and let the flavors marry for an hour or so before using it. We have a salad for dinner every other night here at the 2 Cooks Shaque and this dressing is often in the rotation.

The Ingredients

• 1/2 Cup Mayonnaise
• 1/2 Cup Sour Cream
• 1/4 tsp Pepper
• 1/2 tsp Garlic Granules
• 3 Shakes Worcestershire Sauce
• 1/2 Tbls Apple Cider Vinegar
• 3 oz Blue Cheese

The Blue Cheese

We want to start with a good quality blue cheese. You’ll find it makes all the difference to the end result. We buy the Point Reyes Blue Cheese from Costco, cut it into 4 oz portions and freeze them. Then we can just thaw one out, crumble it and make our dressing.

Mix Mayonnaise and Sour Cream

We’ll start our dressing by mixing mayonnaise and sour cream in a small mixing bowl. You can use any mayonnaise although we prefer the Duke’s Mayonnaise brand. We’ll use equal amounts of each giving us both sweetness and tang.

Add Garlic and Black Pepper

Next we will add our black pepper and garlic granules. You can use garlic powder here if you want. We started liking the granules because they store better and they don’t turn into a rock in the jar. So many times our garlic powder was almost unusable because it had gotten so hard in the spice cupboard.

Add Worcestershire Sauce and Apple Cider Vinegar

Our favorite secret sauce for so many recipes is worcestershire sauce. We want about three shakes of the bottle. It adds the right amount of umami to really set this off. And then we like to use apple cider vinegar for this recipe as it adds a little fruitiness.

Mix Thoroughly

We just want to get this all mixed together before adding the blue cheese. We have a small wisk that works well for this job.

Add the Blue Cheese

Now we’ll add the blue cheese and mix that in well. We like to save a little of the blue cheese for topping on the salad but most of it goes into the dressing.

Mix Well

We’ll mix this all together and then cover the bowl and let it rest in the refrigerator for 45 minutes to an hour. This will get all our flavors married.

We like to serve this dressing on a bacon and blue cheese chopped wedge salad for dinner. It also makes a great dip for vegetables or chips. Another great dip recipe is our Healthy Lemon Garlic Hummus. You can also make our Green Goddess Dressing and Dip.
