Easy Blue Cheese Sauce

Here's a very simple recipe for a versatile sauce that can be used on steaks or as a dip for vegetables or crusty bread. It is also very good tossed with pasta as a side dish to serve with steak or roast beef. I actually toss this sauce with cooked penne and thinly sliced rare steak for one of my favorite pasta dishes. It's saturated fat heaven, I know, but it is so delicious.

I don't cook this for long because I like the blue cheese to stay a little chunky while still flavoring the sauce.

To a small saucepan add:

1 tbsp olive oil

3 tbsp chopped shallots

Saute the shallots in the olive oil until softened and fully cooked. Add

1 oz white wine

simmer until the wine is half reduced in volume, then add

1/2 cup sour cream

pinch salt

1/4 tsp fresh cracked black pepper

Bring to a slow simmer before adding

2 ounces crumbled blue cheese, at room temperature.

Stir in the blue cheese, cover the pot and remove it from the heat. Let stand for 5 minutes before giving it a final stir and serving.
