About this recipe
American Style Blue Cheese Dressing Thermomix TM7 is the creamy, tangy sauce that transforms an ordinary salad or platter of chicken wings into a true American diner experience. Made with mayonnaise, sour cream, milk and bold Gorgonzola, this recipe relies on the emulsifying power of the all-in-one kitchen machine to blend everything into a stable, velvety dressing that never splits. Searching for quick dressing recipes for your Thermomix TM7 ends here: you simply weigh the mayonnaise and sour cream directly into the bowl, add crumbled Gorgonzola, mustard powder, garlic powder and a dash of Worcestershire sauce, and let the machine do the work. The result is noticeably silkier than anything stirred by hand, because the blades distribute the blue cheese evenly throughout the mixture. Ideal for game night, barbecues, or a quick weeknight side, this dip also makes a fantastic last-minute party recipe. Season with sea salt and ground pepper, chill briefly, and serve with crunchy celery sticks, crisp lettuce or crispy wings for instant crowd-pleasing flavour.
Preparation tips
- Crumble the Gorgonzola before adding it to the mixing bowl so the blue cheese disperses evenly through the mayonnaise and sour cream, giving every spoonful the same tangy punch without large lumps.
- Adjust the consistency with milk gradually: add a splash, blend, and check, since the dressing should coat a spoon generously but still pour slowly over crisp romaine or chicken wings.
- Make the dressing a few hours ahead and keep it covered in the fridge; the garlic powder and Worcestershire sauce deepen in flavour, and a quick stir before serving restores the creamy texture.
Recipe variations
- For a lighter version, replace half of the mayonnaise with Greek yogurt and use a milder blue cheese; the Gorgonzola flavour stays present while the dressing becomes fresher and less rich.
- For a festive twist, fold in finely snipped chives and a pinch of smoked paprika after blending, or add a spoonful of buttermilk for a ranch-style variation that is delicious with vegetable sticks at parties.
