Ingredients

  • 3 ounces crumbled blue cheese
  • 2 tablespoons whole milk more as needed
  • 2 teaspoons white distilled vinegar
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon freshly minced parsley
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon sugar
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Add the blue cheese, whole milk, and vinegar to a small mixing bowl and mash together with a fork until the blue cheese is in small, creamy pieces.
  • Add the mayonnaise, sour cream, parsley, garlic powder, and sugar and stir well to combine.
  • Taste and add salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste. We use around ½ teaspoon each. Add additional milk, if needed, to reach your desired consistency.
  • Store in a mason jar in the fridge for up to 1 week.

Notes

You can use buttermilk for a stronger, tangier flavor.
Swap the vinegar for lemon juice or apple cider vinegar, if preferred.
If you’re using dried parsley, you’ll need around ½ teaspoon.
To make this dressing more smooth instead of chunky, pop everything into a small blender and blend until smooth.
This makes around 1 cup of dressing.
