What is Roquefort Dressing?
Traditional blue cheese dressing is made with a Danish blue cheese that is a little on the dry and crumbly side. Roquefort is a tangier cheese and a little more moist, which means it will hold together better. So simply put – yes, Roquefort dressing is blue cheese dressing, just using a different variety of cheese.
Wedge salad toppings:
