I love trying new things and testing them out with my family. There are different kinds of blue cheese to choose from. Any and all of them will work in this recipe. This is the absolute best Blue Cheese dressing I’ve ever had. It tastes great on anything and everything. I especially like it on the Skinnytaste Buffalo Chicken Meatballs.
Marie’s flavor is pretty comparable to Ken’s or Kraft’s with a slightly stronger blue cheese taste. It also had the lowest sodium content of the brands we tried, at 7 percent of someone’s daily recommended sodium intake per serving. For those looking for a slightly more low-sodium-friendly version of blue cheese, this would be our top pick. From chips and dip to one-bite apps, finger foods are the perfect way to kick off a party. No forks or spoons required, just easy-to-pick-up party foods, so you can clean up in no time. The humble burger doesn't get all the fun with this sauce.
Easy Blue Cheese Dressing
But blue cheese the other delicious, creamy salad topping definitely deserves a spot as a close second. Whether its being used as a sauce or as a greens finisher, blue cheese dressing is just as versatile as Hidden Valleys namesake. Nothing beats the flavor of homemade salad dressing. Making your own salad dressing gives you control of what ingredients go into it.
Slowly stir in the remaining blue cheese to incorporate it into the sauce. Turn off the heat and remove the pan from the stove to prevent the cheese from melting completely, which would make the sauce runny. Place in refrigerator for 30 minutes for flavors to blend.

And if you have a favorite homemade salad dressing recipe, let me know, Iâd love to give it a try. Place the milk, mayonnaise, sour cream, blue cheese and garlic salt in a blender. Whisk together the mayonnaise, blue cheese and a generous pinch of salt in a small bowl. Whisk in the buttermilk and a couple turns of freshly ground black pepper until blended.
Blue cheese dressing doesn’t last as long as you might think. It can start to separate and go downhill quickly. I recommend making smaller batches and eating it within a couple of days. If you don’t have white vinegar, apple cider vinegar will work, or feel free to use all lemon juice. A. Yes, but bear in mind that the dressing might be a bit thinner, requiring less buttermilk. Depending on the brand, some low-fat products also have a tangier flavor, so you might need to adjust the amount of lemon juice accordingly.
Similarly, I needed more whole milk buttermilk to make a pourable dressing than low-fat. (Whole buttermilk has a thicker, richer texture.) I also found that the tanginess of buttermilk varied across brands and fat percentages. If you’re unable to find “farm” buttermilk, or want to lighten the dressing up a bit, low-fat cultured buttermilk can be substituted. Place the dressing in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for 24 hours. There is no mention of heavy cream in ingredients, but there is in instructions.

Add the cooked wings to the pot and toss with the remaining sauce. Serve with the blue cheese dip and reserved sauce. Stir together blue cheese, buttermilk, sour cream, minced garlic, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, ground mustard powder, and salt. I didn't deviate much but cut back on the white wine vinegar as I figured I could add more if I want. I had the treasure cave brand in the freezer for awhile but it was fine.
