This was so delicious. I left out the capers and pecans because I didn't have any. Served it on grilled romaine. I think capers would add a nice salty bite, but I'm not sure pecans would do anything to make it better. It's a really good non-creamy blue cheese dressing.

Blue cheese lovers take note...this is a great dressing. I made this as is but I forgot to add the pecans to the salad...didn't matter because the dressing was so delicious on it's own. I made this for myself, I'm the only blue cheese person in my house (lucky me!) I used Shropshire Bleu in this recipe. Thanks Danny for sharing this, I loved it :)
