This dressing blends buttermilk ranch seasonings with chunks of blue cheese for a creamy dip that works equally well drizzled over salads or served alongside wings and crudités. Chilling the mixture for an hour lets the herbs and garlic mellow into the base.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Method

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, buttermilk, and sour cream until smooth.

  2. Add the minced garlic, chives, dried parsley, onion powder, dill, black pepper, and salt, then stir to combine.

  3. Fold in the crumbled blue cheese, leaving some larger chunks for texture, then stir in the lemon juice.

  4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld before serving.

  5. Stir well before serving, and thin with a splash of buttermilk if a lighter consistency is desired.
