I started this blog with a
recipe for my mother’s applesauce, and it just doesn’t feel right not to
include something from dad. After
becoming single again, he was faced with the task of pretending to cook, even
though he was clueless in the kitchen. But he’d developed a good pallet after living with mom all those years, and wasn’t willing to just eat take out. After a few years, he developed a little recipe box of his own that was
pretty good. This dressing was my first
taste of blue cheese, and I’m still a fan of it today. I don’t often put creamy dressings on my
salad (I’d rather sprinkle the cheese in rather than on), but if you’re going
to have a creamy dressing, this one is delicious. Good work, pops!
