What is blue cheese?
Blue cheese is the heart of this recipe. There are different varieties ranging in taste profiles but all blue cheese are milk based cheese molded with Penicillium cultures. Some of the most common are types are Gorgonzola, Roquefort, and Stilton which are all made outside of the US. They are each great for different recipes for different reasons but there are a cheese brands made in the US that are just as great.

The brand of blue cheese that I use is made in Wisconsin. is labeled as smooth and creamy with a subtle tanginess which is why I love it in this dressing. It’s not as harsh as some blue cheeses can be. This particular brand is perfect for recipes like Blue Cheese Butter for a pan-seared steak, a pungent Potato Salad, and a delicious Blue Cheese Dip.
How to make dressing
Add all of the ingredients minus the blue cheese to a food processor then add 1/3 of the cheese and pulse to purée the garlic cloves and onion.
