  • Blend until the dressing becomes smooth and creamy, about 30–45 seconds.
  • Stop once or twice to scrape down the sides of the blender if needed so everything blends evenly.
  • Taste the dressing and adjust if needed. Add another splash of vinegar for more tang or a small pinch of salt to strengthen the flavor.
  • If you prefer a thinner dressing, add a tablespoon of water or olive oil and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.

Notes

Notes

• Blending cottage cheese completely smooth is important for the best texture. If your blender struggles, add a small splash of water to help it blend.
• This dressing is naturally thick. Add a tablespoon of water, milk, or olive oil if you prefer a thinner dressing for green salads.
