I inherited my love of blue cheese from my Grandma. Thank god she instilled that good sense in me. Literally nothing tastes worse with blue cheese + everything tastes better.
Salad:
Lettuce - I like a Bibb or Butter Lettuce
1 Fennel Bulb
1lb Potatoes - I like the very small ones for this salad
¼ Red Onion
1 pint Strawberries
1 cup Blue Cheese - pick your fave!
6-8 Scallions
Roast the potatoes with salt + pepper. Chop the fennel fronds + very thinly slice the fennel bulb. Very thinly slice the red onion. Chop the strawberries. Tear the lettuce. Chop the scallions. Crumble the blue cheese. Mix everything together. Now - dress! Enjoy!
Blue Cheese Dressing:
1 cup sour cream (I’ve subbed yogurt before, just add some vinegar to make it more sour)
1 cup mayonnaise
4oz blue cheese - crumbled
1 TB black pepper
1 tsp salt
10-12 chives - chopped
2-4 TB buttermilk
Leaving the buttermilk for last, add everything together. Use the buttermilk to thin it out to your liking. If you need it more acidic add 1TB vinegar at a time.
