Looking for Good Blue Cheese Dressing Recipe
Comments (5)I generally use Roquefort, and I make a very simple recipe: 1/8 pound Roquefort cheese, as fresh as possible 1 tbsp black pepper, coarsely ground 3-4 dashes cayenne 3-4 Tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice (Meyer lemons preferred) approx. 1-1/2 cups mayonnaise (Best Foods or HellmannâÂÂs) Break the cheese in a small bowl with a fork and add the lemon juice. Mix by hand--do not use a blender. If you like to have small lumps of cheese in the dressing, reserve some of the cheese to put back in later. Add the pepper and cayenne and stir with the fork. Add cheese lumps at this time if you have reserved any and stir in carefully so that they will not become blended. Add the mayonnaise - the amount you add will depend on how strong a Roquefort flavor you desire. I like it fairly strong, but no Worchestershire sauce. Chill for at least half an hour before serving. I have sometimes substituted part sour cream for some of the mayo, but normally I use all mayo for a salad dressing and part sour cream for a dip. If I use Bleu cheese instead of Roquefort, I increase the quantity a bit. Lars...See MoreNEED Good Creamy Blue Cheese Dressing recipe

Comments (23)I'm planning on 4 different toppings--a cold one spread with drained yogurt mixed with lemon zest and topped with smoked salmon, marinated artichoke hearts and scallions or red onion (have made this for myself and it was delish); one with mozzarella and (locally raised) Italian sausage; one with whatever cheese and caramelized onions, and one with mozzarella and my home made pancetta (from locally raised, grass fed pigs). Probably will add some asiago or parmesan to that one or the sausage one. All except the first will be heated to melt the cheeses....See MoreIf you could only have five cheeses on hand ...
Comments (36)This thread made me think about cheeses I haven't had often but really like. Abbaye de Belloc came to mind. It's a sheep's milk cheese made in the French Pyrenees. I searched the web and found it's no longer here. Not banned; it's a raw milk cheese but it's aged. But the monks who make it decided not to jump through the hoops the FDA requires anymore. This is really too bad. The article I read is from two years ago so I'm hoping that was temporary, but I doubt it. http://www.janetfletcher.com/blog/2018/3/10/gone-for-good...See MoreLars/J.
