Wedge Salad With Buttermilk Blue Cheese Dressing Recipes

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:

• Stir the buttermilk, mayonnaise, blue cheese, garlic powder, and black pepper together in a bowl.
• Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight before serving.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix the first 7 ingredients. Cut lettuce into 6 wedges. To serve, top wedges with dressing, tomatoes and bacon.

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.
• On each of 6 plates, place 2 slices of bread. Arrange a lettuce wedge on top of each bread slice.
• Pour dressing over the wedges. Sprinkle with bacon and scallions. Serve.

Steps:

• Slice the lettuce into thick wedges. In a medium-sized bowl, add the mayonnaise, sour cream, buttermilk, salt and pepper, to taste, hot sauce, chives, garlic, and lemon juice. Whisk together, then slowly fold in the blue cheese crumbles. Arrange the lettuce on a serving platter and drizzle with the dressing. Garnish with tomatoes, avocado, and bacon. Serve.

Steps:

• Mash up 1/2 cup of the blue cheese in a bowl until smooth; add the mayonnaise, yogurt, lemon juice and Dijon mustard and mix until combined. Season to taste with salt and pepper. If the dressing is too thick for your taste, add a bit of buttermilk or water to thin down. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Lay the iceberg wedges on a platter or one on each individual plate.
• Top with a generous drizzle of dressing, then sprinkle with the cherry tomatoes and the remaining 1/2 cup blue cheese. Top each with strip of crispy bacon.

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.
