This is a simple guide to creating the delicious standard the way it should taste. You will notice a stark contrast between this fresh, tangy gem and the mushy goop that passes for “ranch” in commercial bottles.
Delicious, fresh ranch
Ingredients
1 Cup low-fat buttermilk, shaken
1/4 Cup low-fat mayonnaise
5 Tbsp non-fat Greek yogurt, plain
4 Tbsp white wine vinegar
2 Tbsp fresh Italian parsley, finely chopped
3 Tbsp fresh chives, finely chopped
3 Tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped
1 medium garlic close, finely chopped – or – 1 1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
3/4 tsp Kosher salt (or more to taste)
1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
Directions:
Combine and mix all ingredients until herbs are evenly distributed. Store and chill for at least one hour, allowing the flavors to set. This delicious dressing stores great in a mason jar, or a squeeze bottle. Try it on the usual suspects of salads and greens, or dress up plain chicken or drab sandwiches with a blast of fresh tang.
