Call me crazy, but I could eat this dip by the spoonful. I blame my Dad for that. He made homemade Blue Cheese Dip all the time when I was little, and I became addicted to it at a very young age. We loved blue cheese salad dressing in our house, so this dip wasn’t that far of a stretch. On football Sundays, I always stretched out on the couch with my Dad and nibbled veggies dipped in his delicious, homemade dip!
Nowadays, I make blue cheese dip for parties. It’s easy enough to make and contribute to a party you’re attending, and it’s easy enough to make and serve as a dip with vegetables at your own party.
How do you make Blue Cheese Dip?
Minced garlic is mashed with Kosher salt. Blue cheese crumbles are added to the garlic. I like to use a GOOD quality blue cheese. It makes all the difference! Sour cream and heavy whipping cream are mixed in too. This dip thickens when chilled, but it thins out again when the dip comes to room temperature.
What can you serve with Blue Cheese Dip?
Fresh vegetables are perfect for dipping in this dip. A colorful array of carrots, bell pepper, celery, broccoli- whatever you’d like. They’re all a good pairing with blue cheese. Alternately, you can use this dip for dunking hot chicken wings. The heat of the sauce of the wings is cooled off by the tangy dip. It’s definitely a classic pairing.
