Blue Cheese and Herb Dip

4 servings

5 minutes

Dip made from blue cheese and greens is a vibrant embodiment of Mediterranean cuisine, where the freshness of greens harmoniously blends with the rich, spicy flavor of blue cheese. This sauce, inspired by the traditions of France and Italy, perfectly complements vegetables, crispy baguette or meat appetizers. The tenderness of Neuchâtel cheese softens the spiciness of parsley and green onions, while lemon juice and vinegar add a pleasant tanginess. The addition of mayonnaise makes the texture airy, and black pepper adds a subtle heat. Such dips are popular in Mediterranean regions as a light yet sophisticated addition to meals. Serve chilled for maximum flavor enhancement, enjoying every note of this exquisite dish.
