Ingredients

  • 16 ounces mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped green olives
  • 2 ounces blue cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 6 tablespoons buttermilk added as needed

Instructions

  • Place the onion and green olives in a food processor. Pulse until they are chopped into very small pieces. Remove them from the food processor and set aside.
  • Chop or crumble the blue cheese into small pieces.
  • Combine the mayonnaise, chopped onion, chopped green olives, blue cheese, and garlic powder in a large bowl. Stir until evenly mixed.
  • Add the buttermilk one tablespoon at a time, stirring after each addition, until the dip reaches a smooth, scoopable consistency.
  • Cover the bowl tightly and place it in the refrigerator to chill until ready to serve. For the best flavor, chill it for at least two hours.
  • Stir well before serving. Add a small splash of buttermilk if the dip needs to be thinned.
  • Serve cold with tortilla chips, crackers, pretzels, or fresh vegetables.

Notes

  1. Use real mayonnaise rather than Miracle Whip for the intended savory flavor.
  2. Drain the olives well before chopping.
  3. Don’t overprocess the onion and olives into a puree.
  4. Add the buttermilk gradually because you may not need every tablespoon.
  5. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three to four days.
  6. This recipe is inspired by the famous white dip associated with Hamlin’s El Toro in Muskogee, Oklahoma; it is not presented as the restaurant’s verified proprietary formula.
