Equipment

  • Medium-sized bowl
  • Whisk

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup of neutral vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons of red wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons of aged balsamic vinegar
  • 1 packet of Italian Dressing Mix by Good Seasons
  • 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon of honey
  • 3 tablespoons of Danish blue cheese crumbles
  • 2 tablespoons of water

Instructions

Step 1: Assemble Your Ingredients

  • Gather all the ingredients listed above. Being prepared will make the process smoother and quicker. Trust me, you don’t want to be halfway through mixing and realize you forgot something essential.

Step 2: Blend Vinegars and Mustard

  • In a medium-sized bowl, combine the red wine vinegar, aged balsamic vinegar, and Dijon mustard. Whisk these together until fully blended.

Step 3: Add Honey

  • Next, add the tablespoon of honey into the vinegar and mustard mixture. Whisk until the honey is completely dissolved. The honey adds a subtle sweetness that balances the tangy vinegars.

Step 4: Incorporate the Italian Dressing Mix

  • Empty the packet of Italian Dressing Mix into the bowl. Stir well to ensure the spices and herbs are evenly distributed.

Step 5: Gradually Add Oil

  • Slowly pour the neutral vegetable oil into the mixture while continuously whisking. This step is crucial for emulsification, which gives the dressing its smooth consistency.

Step 6: Introduce the Blue Cheese Crumbles

  • Finally, add the Danish blue cheese crumbles. Gently mix them in. The blue cheese will infuse the dressing with its robust flavor, giving it that signature taste.

Step 7: Add Water

  • If the dressing is too thick for your liking, you can thin it down by adding the 2 tablespoons of water. Whisk until fully integrated.

Notes

  • Crumbled Blue Cheese: Always opt for high-quality blue cheese crumbles for a richer taste.
  • Vinegar Balance: If you prefer a less tangy dressing, adjust the amount of vinegar to your liking.
  • Oil Choices: While neutral vegetable oil is recommended, you can experiment with olive oil for a different flavor profile.
  • Storage: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. Shake well before each use.
  • Emulsification: For a smoother dressing, consider using an immersion blender.
