Ranch Dressing

Author: Christopher Kosovich

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 6 tablespoons sour cream
  • 1 tbsp minced shallot or red onion
  • 1 tbsp minced fresh parsley
  • 1 tbsp minced fresh cilantro
  • 2 garlic clove minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • Pinch of sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Whisk together all ingredients.
  • Check seasoning and add more sugar, salt or pepper if needed.
  • Store covered in refrigerator up to 4 days.

Notes

Makes approximately 1 1/2 cups.
I used powdered buttermilk as a substitute to fresh buttermilk.
I have heard (still have to try it but didn't want to forget the tip so I am noting it here) of another alternative for buttermilk substitute, combine 1 cup milk with 1 tablespoon lemon juice or white vinegar. Let sit 5 minutes, then use as directed in your recipe.
