    I only made the dressing (but Iceberg salad is only as good as the dressing :- It is a wonderfully light tasting blue cheese dressing. I doubled the recipe and added 1 tsp of chopped fresh tarragon which added an earthy anise component that complemented the cheese and chives.

    My husband and I fell in love with this salad at a favorite steak house. We just had to try and replicate it - this recipe was very close. It was easy to make and very delicious.
