Ingredients

Ranch Dressing Ingredients

  • ½ cup buttermilk
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 2 teaspoons minced fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves or 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, mayonnaise, and sour cream until smooth and creamy, creating the base for your ranch dressing.
  2. Add Herbs and Spices: Stir in the minced fresh parsley (or dried parsley), onion powder, garlic powder, dried dill, and fine sea salt until the mixture is evenly blended and fragrant.
  3. Chill the Dressing: Transfer the dressing to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and develop. Store refrigerated for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

  • For a thinner dressing, increase the buttermilk slightly.
  • Use fresh herbs for a brighter flavor, or dried if fresh is unavailable.
  • Shake or stir well before each use as separation may occur.
  • Great as a salad dressing, dip for vegetables, or accompaniment for grilled meats.
  • Can be customized by adding hot sauce or lemon juice for extra zing.
