Steakhouse Blue Cheese Dressing Recipe
This Steakhouse Blue Cheese Dressing Recipe is creamy, tangy, packed with bold flavor, and it's ready in 10 minutes from scratch! It's my absolute go-to recipe, especially with crispy wings!
Ingredients
- ½ cup sour cream
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- ½ TBSP milk
- ½ tsp sugar
- 2 large garlic cloves (approx. 2 tsp)
- 3 ounces (85 g) blue cheese (crumbled)
- ½ TBSP vinegar
- ½ tsp Worcestershire
- ¼ tsp salt (or to taste, depending on the saltiness of your blue cheese)
- ¼ tsp ground black pepper
- 1 TBSP chopped fresh parsley, green onions, or chives (optional)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, add the sour cream, mayonnaise, milk, pressed garlic, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Whisk everything together until smooth and fully combined. You can taste test at this point. You’ll already get a good sense of the flavor.
- Add half of the blue cheese crumbles to your dressing base, and mix well. Using a fork, smash some of the crumbles against the bowl to melt them into the dressing.
- Add the remaining blue cheese crumbles and fold them gently into the dressing, so that the dressing stays creamy but chunky. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if needed. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, best overnight.Note: Don't salt too much, as the flavors will continue to develop as the dressing rests in the fridge.
Notes
- This dressing keeps things simple with just three base ingredients — sour cream, mayonnaise, and blue cheese — so good-quality ingredients make all the difference if you want that true steakhouse-style flavor.
- Use it on salads as-is, or thin it out with a splash of milk and a touch more vinegar.
- If you’re making this for a party, I highly recommend preparing it one to two days ahead. It’s one thing off your to-do list, and the flavor only gets better.
