Stunning. Beats any store-bought dressing by a mile, and I believe it’s cheaper. I chose this recipe over other 5-star contenders because it uses common ingredients–the other recipes called for small amounts of buttermilk. Who’s gonna buy a quart of buttermilk to use just a little? Everything in this recipe is in your common pantry.

That is the Best Blue Cheese Dressing I have ever had. It was not a strong tast of blue cheese, I wanted to eat the whole bowl full. I made a salad and wanted some homemade blue cheese dressing to go with it. I am taking it to a sewing group tomorrow. I am taking 2 different dressing so that everyone can have a choice of there own dressing. I will be making it again.

Wow! I just made this and followed the recipe co a T. It is outstanding, restaurant grade. I always have trouble finding a clean dressing that has great flavor. This is it! I don’t think I’ll buy dressing again.

This is an excellent recipe for blue cheese dressing. It has a thick yet pourable consistency that clings nicely to salad. Each of the ingredients combine to create rich dimensions in the overall flavor. I wish every restaurant served blue cheese dressing as great as this!
Adam Nguyen
This is , hands down, my favorite recipe for blue cheese dressing. It is made simply, and tastes great. Thanks for sharing it.
Stephanie Rodriguez
Tweaked this a little to lighten up the recipe.1/2 C Mayo & 1/2 C plain Greek yogurt. 3/4 Tbl. Dill flakes & 1 Tbl. Parsley flakes. Replaced hot sauce with chili powder-same measurement. WOW is this delicious.
Michael Taylor
I think this is really good. I followed it exactly. Next time I would leave out the honey. It’s not bad, just a little different and I like it to be more traditional. I think the other ingredients are perfect and will keep making without the honey or maybe just less. Used it for wings and the consistency was perfect. Could thin out with milk for salad.

I substituted a lot…added real mustard, garlic salt instead of sea salt, apple cider vinegar instead of Worcestershire, avocado oil just because, 1/2 blue cheese & 1/2 feta cheese, spinach instead of parsley flakes, apple honey instead of regular. I liked this recipe but I think mine came out just as well!

Love This! I decreased the mayo some but now I’ve made it enough times i can just “wing it” pinch of this , pinch of that .Yum!! thanks for the basics.
Anthony King
This is a good dressing. I recommend it for a salad. I made it to go along with buffalo wings and determined it was too busy for wings. For wings you want a simple dressing. I’ll make this in the future for a salad.

I love blue cheese dressing, and this was very good! If it is a little thick for you, just add a little milk (or non-dairy creamer like I did), to get it to the consistency that you like. Thanks for the great recipe!

This is the first time I’ve ever made blue cheese dressing. I’ll never buy bottled again. Everyone seemed to enjoy it. I’ll keep the recipe and make again but continue to experiment.

I imagine that part of the secret to a blue cheese dressing recipe is starting with a blue cheese with an irresistibly good flavor, which I did. The brand of mayo may also be a factor in the success. I used Duke’s Mayonnaise and was very happy with it. The equal parts of sour cream, mayo and blue cheese in this recipe are just right. Once I mixed these together, then added the lemon, it tasted exactly like what I was hoping the finished dressing would taste like, so I stopped there. I chilled it for a few hours and, to avoid watery dressing, waited to add the parsley until right before serving. Limiting this recipe to the base ingredients makes for a very simple dressing, but it was some of the best blue cheese dressing I’ve ever had. Others raved over it, too.

I did not like this dressing. It had too much mayonnaise, and the hot sauce took away any good blue cheese taste. Too much pepper and salt as well. Also, too thick. I wasted my money on this one. I’ll have to throw it away.
Steven Baxter
I made this exactly as recipe states. It is delicious! Just the right balance between salty and sweet. The little bit of honey is vital for that balance. I loved that it was all ingredient I have in my pantry. it is thick, delicious and on a green salad. It will be my go to for Blue Cheese Dressing.

you MUST let it sit in the fridge for a bit. i made it and immediately put some in my salad and it was bleh lol but the next day it was like a completely different dressing, so so so good (not sure if you need to let it sit a whole day, but i did). we left out the Worcestershire sauce cause we didn’t have enough to get it this week and it is still great so i wouldnt worry about it if you dont have it. we had it with iceberg lettuce, tomatoes, and trader joe’s sausage cut up into bits and cooked first
Adrian Alvarado
Excellent dressing. Made it as recipe states. I did add just a bit of buttermilk to make it flow better but liked it thick as well. It made a lot of dressing but hope to use it a lot also.
Timothy Macdonald
I made small changes: swapped plain Greek yogurt for sour cream, added 1 clove garlic & omitted honey. I’m not a huge bleu cheese dressing fan but this turned out well & I will definitely make again.
Adam Miller
I LOVE this recipe.
Richard Pena
Tastes way better than store bought! The only change I made was I substituted greek yogurt for sour cream. It tastes incredible and so easy to make!
Kevin Walker
I followed the recipe exactly and I loved it!
