Why do Americans like Blue/Bleau Cheese dressing, and best recipe for homemade?
I’m not sure why Americans like blue cheese dressing. I’m quite certain not all Americans do, actually. But for those of us who like a sharp cheese flavor, a nice blue cheese dressing is quite a nice topping for a salad or a wonderful dip for “Buffalo Wings.” In the case of buffalo wings, I think the creaminess of the dressing helps negate some of the HEAT in the wing sauce. The traditional blue cheese dressing is a creamy concoction for which I’m certain you’ll get a couple good recipies. So rather than repeat that, let me suggest something a little different and (in my humble opinion) even better on a salad than the other type. First you make a basic tangy vinagrette: olive oil, red wine vinegar, dijon mustard, salt and pepper, minced garlic…. Then, just fold in a handful of crumbled blue cheese and let it sit in the refigerator for at least 30 minutes. It’s a nice tangy dressing — something a little different but still with the blue cheese flavor. Bon Appetit!
