Pro Tips
• For the best flavor, let the dressing chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together.
• If the dressing is too thick, thin it out with an extra tablespoon of bone broth or water until you reach the perfect consistency.
• The type of blue cheese you use matters! A creamy Gorgonzola will yield a milder dressing, while a sharp Roquefort will give it a more intense, pungent flavor.
• Don’t just use it on salads! This dressing is a fantastic dip for chicken wings, a spread for keto burgers, or a topping for a seared steak.
