UNIVERSALLY USEFUL BLUE CHEESE DRESSING



Universally Useful Blue Cheese Dressing image

Provided by Nigella Lawson : Food Network

Time 5m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 ounces (1 1/2 cups) crumbled blue cheese
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce (recommended: Lea and Perrins)
1 teaspoon steak sauce (recommended: A1)
1/3 cup buttermilk
3 tablespoons whole milk
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar, good white wine vinegar, or white balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • I promised a trio of sauces, but I just had to get this in under the wire. If you like blue cheese - as I, swooningly, do - then know that this, dribbled over sliced, sweet tomatoes along with a torn-off log of baguette is a perfect enough supper just as it is. And you can make a fabulously retro steakhouse-style starter, by cutting a head of iceberg lettuce into wedges and dribbling each crunchy wedge with this plus, perhaps, a scattering of crisp-fried bacon crumbles. And it makes a fabulous dressing to dribble over leftover rare roast beef.
  • Put the crumbled cheese into a bowl, add the Worcestershire sauce, steak sauce, buttermilk, milk and the vinegar and mix gently until well combined. Thin if necessary with a little iced water. Chill until needed.
  • Make Ahead Note: The dressing will keep for 3 to 4 days in covered container in fridge - store in cold part of fridge rather than in the door.

CHEF JOHN'S CREAMY BLUE CHEESE DRESSING



Chef John's Creamy Blue Cheese Dressing image

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.

BUTTERMILK BLUE CHEESE DRESSING
