Directions

1. In a medium bowl, mash the blue cheese and the salt and pepper with the back of a fork until the pieces of cheese are finely broken up.
2. Stir in the chives, sour cream, buttermilk, and lemon juice or wine vinegar until well mixed.
3. Add a few drops of red wine vinegar.
4. Taste and adjust any of the seasonings to your liking; if the dressing seems too thick, add a bit more buttermilk.
