Homemade Ranch Salad Dressing

When preparing your salad dressing from home, you may change the seasonings/ingredients to fit your family’s tastes and needs.

Ingredients:
Some Mayonnaise: If you want or must make the dressing lighter, or don’t like mayonnaise, use some sour cream or Greek yogurt instead, it’ll do the job or maybe better depending on your tastes.
The Buttermilk: The creamier your Dressing will be, the thicker your buttermilk. Modern buttermilks can vary significantly in thickness matters; if yours is very watery, try getting some Greek yogurt and combine it with half the buttermilk to keep things creamy. It’s also acceptable to use powdered buttermilk; then rehydrate according to the guidelines on the package.
Fine Herbs: This dried herb mixture we recommend is the traditional method, but if one of these herbs isn’t in your cupboard (or you may genuinely despise it), leave it out. If you already possess some fresh chopped herbs on hand, you can surely use them here as well! Double or triple the amount of dry herbs specified.
Instructions:
As previously stated, this is so easy that you need to whisk together all of the ingredients, then taste it and adjust the seasoning/vinegar to your liking. Salad dressing prepared from scratch: finished! Drizzle it over your salad and serve.
Extra Tips: In this recipe, we strongly recommend using some genuine buttermilk (or powdered buttermilk rehydrated according to the package guidelines) since it is essential to the flavor of a classic Ranch Dressing.
