60 g mayonnaise
100 g blue cheese - crumbled or mashed
1 tsp lemon juice
2 tbsp chives - chopped

Metric - USA Cups

Instructions

Put all the ingredients together in a bowl.
120 g sour cream, 60 g mayonnaise, 100 g blue cheese, 1 tsp lemon juice, 2 tbsp chives
Mix together with a spoon or fork (NOT a blender). The dip should be well combined. If needed mash any pieces of cheese against the side of the mixing bowl to get a smoother dip.
Refrigerate for an hour to infuse before you check the flavour balance. Season with pepper if you like. You will not need salt.
Store in the fridge until you are ready to serve.

Notes

Storage

Store your dip in an airtight container in the fridge. Consume within 2 days. I don't recommend freezing this blue cheese dip recipe.

Hints and tips

For a smoother dip, mash the cheese crumbles against the side of the mixing bowl with a fork or spatula. I don't recommend using a blender or mini food processor, as it can make the dip very runny.

Leftovers can be used as pasta sauce. It is also good with salmon or over steak.

Thin your dip with a little milk or buttermilk for a salad dressing to drizzle over crisp salad leaves.
