KITTENCAL'S VEGETABLE PLATTER WITH BLUE CHEESE DIP
Your guests will love this veggie tray! --- plan ahead the dip *must* be chilled for at least 3 hours or up to 24 hours before serving, the flavors will strongly intensify --- The amounts listed for the of dip is enough for about 6-8 people, I suggest to double or triple the amounts if serving a large crowd, if doubling increase the fresh garlic by only as small amount, I did not list amounts for the veggies choose as much as you want to use and whatever assortment you desire --- the veggie platter may be made well in advance, cover tightly with plastic and refrigerate until ready to serve, you will need a large round serving platter to accommodate all the veggies and the bowl of dip --- now if you really want to take this veggie platter to a whole new level and make it really special place assorted cheeses and deviled eggs around the dip bowl on the platter, see my recipe#77854

CHEF JOHN'S CREAMY BLUE CHEESE DRESSING
A cheese grater and a wedge of frozen blue cheese is the secret behind a perfect creamy blue cheese dressing. Those larger chunks sink to the bottom and don't become one with sauce as they do with grated cheese.

KITTENCAL'S BLUE CHEESE DRESSING
This dressing must be chilled for at least 6 hours or overnight before using. Use only mayonnaise for this not salad dressing, Hellman's mayo is the best and only dry mustard powder not prepared yellow mustard. If you are using this for a dip then you might want to reduce the mayonnaise slightly.
