Rich & Creamy Blue Cheese Dressing

Name: Rich & Creamy Blue Cheese Dressing
Ingredients: 2 ½ ounces blue cheese, crumbled (about 1/2 cup); 3 tablespoons buttermilk; 3 tablespoons sour cream; 2 tablespoons mayonnaise; 2 teaspoons white wine vinegar; ¼ teaspoon granulated sugar; ⅛ teaspoon garlic powder; salt; pepper

1 step

In a pinch, whole milk may be used in place of buttermilk. The dressing will be a bit lighter and milder in flavor, but will still taste good. We dressed a variety of different salad greens and found that delicate ones, such as mesclun and butter lettuce, became soggy under the weight of the dressing. Sturdy romaine and curly leaf lettuce were our two favorites. Remember that aggressive seasoning with salt and pepper is necessary because the dressing will be dispersed over the greens.
