They say you should never try out new recipes on friends and family. I disagree with that. Those are the ones I always try recipes out on. I tried this dip out on a group of friends a few weeks ago when we were camping. It is a great one to mke ahead before you go out camping. It makes up very nicely and keeps for a few days in the fridge.
You will need:
1 cup crumbled Maytag blue cheese( you can use any kinds of blue cheese)
1 cup sour cream
1/4 lb cream cheese at room temp.
1 1/2 teaspoons minced or grated fresh lemon zest
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
salt and ground white pepper
1 or 2 gloves garlic, minced
In food prosser, combine three-fourth of the blue cheese, sour cream,cream cheese, lemon zest and juice, 3/4 teaspoon salt , 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 1 clove of garlic. Pulse until well combined but still a little lumpy. Scrape down the the sides of the bowl as necessary. Taste and add the second clove of garlic, if desired. Transfer the dip to a bowl. Stir in most of the remaining blue cheese with a fork, mashing it up a little and scatter the rest over the top. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to marry. Since chilled mixtures taste less flavorful than room temperature ones, let the dip stand at room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.
