Serves: 1 cup
Ingredients
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the sour cream and mayonnaise, whisking them together until smooth and well integrated.
- Add the crumbled blue cheese to the sour cream and mayonnaise mixture, gently folding to distribute the cheese evenly while maintaining some larger cheese chunks for texture.
- Pour in the fresh lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce, stirring carefully to ensure all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
- Season the dressing with salt and freshly ground black pepper, tasting and adjusting the seasoning to your preference.
- For best flavor development, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Before serving, give the dressing a quick stir and adjust consistency if needed by adding a small amount of milk or buttermilk to thin it slightly.
- Store the dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5-7 days.
Tips
- Use high-quality blue cheese for the most robust flavor—artisanal varieties will make a significant difference.
- Let the dressing rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to fully develop and meld together.
- For a smoother consistency, you can briefly pulse the mixture in a food processor, but keep some cheese chunks for texture.
- Adjust the thickness by adding milk or buttermilk if the dressing is too thick.
- Fresh lemon juice is key—avoid bottled juice for the brightest, most vibrant flavor.
- Taste and adjust seasoning before serving to ensure perfect balance.
- Store in an airtight container and consume within 5-7 days for optimal freshness and flavor.
