Paris Wings with Crudités
"Toto, we're not in Buffalo anymore! We've been upgraded to Paris!" Roquefort cheese, made from ewes' milk, is considered the king of blue cheeses, but you could also use a French cows'-milk blue cheese, such as St. Agur or Bleu d'Auvergne, or try Quebec's excellent Bleu Bénédictin. Serve these along with vegetable crudités to dip in the cheese sauce.

- 3/4 tsp (4 mL) salt
- 1/4 tsp (1 mL) black pepper
- 1 tbsp (15 mL) olive or vegetable oil

- 3 to 4 tbsp (45 to 60 mL) buttermilk or milk
