I give a five star for this recipe, but other one gets 1 star--
Hmmmmmmm... well cooks beware-- I made this recipe once and it was delicious.. I tried to make it again yesterday and the first Ina Garten Green Salad with Blue Cheese Dressing I found called for 4 oz of Roquefort and one cup of heavy cream, which I discovered TOO LATE is WAY TOO MUCH- this morning I found this one again-- I will need to toss out the other one I made..
My question is :
Why are there two Ina recipes, identical with ingredients except for the larger amount of cream in the one I used, which is way too much cream...
following is the other recipe:
Forget that, I posted the link to the other recipe and was told I cannot do that -I received this message:

Hands down my favorite blue cheese dressing -- and yes the right blue cheese does make a huge difference.

I made this today and it is delicious!! This is better than the salad dressing you buy in the stores. I give it 5 starts. I added a little bit more of the roquefort cheese, but just a bit more. This recipe is a winner!
