Blue Cheese Dressing

There is simply no comparison, homemade blue cheese dressing just tastes better than store-bought. Go ahead, try this recipe and see for yourself! It's the traditional dressing to top a cool and crisp iceberg lettuce Wedge Salad and the "cooling dip" served with a plateful of spicy hot wings and celery sticks, like our Mikey's Buffalo Wings.

Recipe Ingredients:

1 cup sour cream
1/4 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher or sea salt, or to taste
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled

Cooking Directions:

1. Combine all ingredients, except blue cheese, together in a medium mixing bowl, mixing well.
2. Add crumbled blue cheese and stir vigorously to combine well, allowing some crumbles to remain for texture.
3. Refrigerate for at least a few hours to allow dressing to "set up" and flavors to marry. Store in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Makes 16 (2-tablespoon) servings or about 2 cups.
