Creamy Roquefort Dip

 

 

Quick and easy...
 

1 medium 

 

clove of garlic

 

 

 

kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

 

½ lb 

 

Roquefort

 

1½ cups 

 

crème fraîche or sour cream

 

½ cup 

 

heavy whipping cream (about)

 

 

 

assorted vegetables

 

 

1

In a mortar, or with the flat side of a chef's knife, mash the garlic to a paste with a pinch of kosher salt. Transfer to a medium bowl and add the Roquefort. Roughly mash the cheese with the back of a spoon. Stir in the crème fraîche or sour cream and several grinds of pepper, and then add the cream until the consistency is slightly thinner than sour cream. Taste and add more salt or pepper if needed.

2

Refrigerate until shortly before serving. The dip will thicken in the refrigerator but will return to its original consistency as it comes to room temperature. Serve with assorted vegetables.

 

Yield: About 2 1/2 cups

 

 Cooking Tips

*This may be prepared up to 2 days ahead- only add garlic on the day that you will be serving the dip (or it will be too strong).
