Ingredients

1 cup full-fat sour cream
1 cup blue cheese or Roquefort crumbles
½ cup olive oil
¼ cup red wine vinegar
¼ cup mayonnaise
2 cloves roasted garlic mashed up
2 teaspoons liquid aminos or Tamari sauce
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper

Instructions

Add all of the ingredients to a large bowl.
Mix well, breaking up any blue cheese chunks.
Taste, adjust seasonings if necessary, and taste again.

Notes

Please keep in mind that not all Red Wine Vinegars are made the same. Some are more acidic than others. Right after you make the recipe, it will taste like you have added too much red wine vinegar. Give it a couple minutes to calm down and mix in with the blue cheese.

Keep in mind as well that there are some weak ass blue cheeses for sale out there with very little flavor. I'm a fan of strongly flavored blue cheese. If you can't find any, go for a roquefort.

If you can't find blue cheese crumbles, get a slice and attack it with two forks in a bowl. BAM- you have blue cheese crumbles.
