I’m not proud. I will gladly admit that I like
ranch dressing. I also like a wedge salad. To me a wedge of iceberg lettuce,
topped with ranch dressing, and a few crumbles of blue cheese (perhaps some
crumbled bacon) is like heaven. I also like to keep ranch dressing on hand for
crudités, crackers, and pretzels, because all of these things cry out for a
dip. I like to tinker around with different recipes, and I think this quite
possibly might be my favorite.
Herbed Ranch Dressing
Herbed Ranch Dressing
½ c. Duke’s
mayonnaise
½ c. sour cream
½ c. buttermilk
1 t. fresh lemon zest
1 t. dried
minced onion
1½ t. dill
weed
½ t. dried
parsley
½ t. garlic
powder
¼ t. freshly ground black pepper
Place all ingredients into a medium bowl, and whisk until creamy. Refrigerate
for at least eight hours or overnight to allow flavors to meld. This will keep
in the refrigerator for 7 to 10 days. Before you ask, yes, you can use fresh
herbs, but it will only keep for 3 to 4 days.

I'm with you Pattie. I love ranch dressing, and I love a good wedge salad (no bacon please).
ReplyDeleteWe always make our own dressings. This looks great!
ReplyDeleteI've actually never found a ranch dressing recipe I like, but the lemon zest in this one appeals to me. I know you'll be horrified, but we normally just use the Tuscan Garden mix from Aldi, as it seems to have less salt than most packets.
