Iceberg Wedges With Buttermilk Blue Cheese Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium mixing bowl, combine the lemon juice, mayonnaise, buttermilk, sour cream, garlic powder and onion powder. Whisk the mixture together until smooth. Add the cheese and mix just until blended. Chill in an airtight container in the refrigerator at least 2 hours before serving.
• Core and quarter each head of lettuce. Serve a generous dollop of dressing over each lettuce wedge and top with the bacon and tomato. Season with pepper.

Steps:

• Whisk together buttermilk, mayonnaise, shallot, chives, lemon juice, coarse salt, pepper, and celery salt in a small bowl. Fold in blue cheese. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until cold, about 30 minutes.
• Place each wedge of lettuce on an individual plate. Drizzle each wedge with dressing and garnish with tomatoes, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels, reserving the skillet with bacon fat. Brush bread slices on both sides with bacon fat. Place bread on a baking sheet, and bake until golden brown, turning once, about 5 minutes a side. Remove from oven, and reserve.
• In a small bowl, combine buttermilk, cheese, lemon juice, vinegar, shallots, parsley and cayenne. Whisk to blend. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

• Pour dressing over the wedges. Sprinkle with bacon and scallions. Serve.

Steps:

• Combine 1/2 pound blue cheese, sour cream, buttermilk, mayonnaise, vinegar, olive oil, sugar, garlic, and pepper in a bowl; blend using a hand mixer; chill until serving.
• Build the salad by placing 1 lettuce wedge on each of 8 plates. Drizzle equal amounts of dressing over each wedge. Scatter tomatoes, onion, and 1/2 pound blue cheese over each salad.

Steps:

• Make the dressing in a medium-sized bowl by combining the buttermilk, soured cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice and 50g of the blue cheese. Season and stir through the chives. Chill until ready to serve.
