It’s so difficult to find Ranch dressing in the UK! I love ordering it when we’re in the US for dunking pizza crusts or drizzling on crispy chicken burgers.
A tangy-creamy combination of mayo, soured cream, buttermilk, fresh or dried herbs and some seasoning makes up this fantastic homemade version that keeps fresh all week in the fridge. If you’ve never tried it before I urge you to give it a go. You won’t regret it!
First introduced to me on one of our trips to the US, I found myself hunting for it high and low in the UK. There are a couple of store-bought versions in some of the bigger shops, but none of them compared to the ranch in America.
This is the version I make at home and it goes down an absolute storm!
📋 Ingredients
- The saucy bit – mayonnaise, sour cream and buttermilk
- Fresh herbs – parsley, chives and dill
- Seasonings – salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and a little white wine vinegar
How to make it
***Full recipe with detailed steps in the recipe card at the end of this post***
- Place all of the ingredients together in a mason jar. Screw the lid on and shake to combine. Alternatively mix it all together in a bowl or jug.
Pro Tip
Don’t make the mistake I did of stirring the mixture vigorously with a metal spoon in a glass jar. See result below ⬇️ (the base of the jar smashed).
My absolute favourite way to serve it is drizzled over a crispy buffalo chicken burger (you can just see the little beauty in the background).
