You have too many ingredients. All you need is bleu cheese, Mayo or Miracle Whip (my fave), and a little milk to thin it. If you want pepper, add it to your salad after it's dressed.
Try this, you'll never go back...
Mayonnaise (2 parts)
Sour cream (1 part)
Buttermilk to thin
Crumbled blue cheese (not Gorgonzola - try a maytag blue)
Worcestershire sauce (1 tsp per 2 cups of dressing)
Grated fresh onion
Granulated garlic
White pepper
Salt to taste
I made a blue cheese dressing last night using the following ingredients:
Sour cream
Mayonnaise
Gorgonzola
Granulated garlic
Black pepper
Parsley
Chives
Salt
Milk to thin it
It tasted great, but it didn't taste like blue cheese dressing except when I got bites with a chunk of blue cheese. When I used the leftovers this afternoon it was the same thing. What I'm looking for is a light blue cheese flavor through out the entire thing with crumbles of blue cheese adding occasional intensity.
My first instinct is to use the hand blender to mix some of the gorganzola with the sour cream before adding everything else but I'm open to suggestions. Anyone have an idea about the best way to accomplish my goal?
