A creamy dressing with the perfect blend of spices, adjust the amount of dill to suit taste I advise not to use more than 2 teaspoon fresh garlic or it will overpower the dressing, all other amounts may be adjusted to suit taste - don't even think about serving this dressing until after it's chilled for at least 4 or more hours and the longer the better - for a lower fat option use low-fat mayonnaise, sour cream and buttermilk - for Ranch Peppercorn dressing add in 1 tablespoon cracked black pepper or to taste, and for Parmesan ranch dressing add in 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese or to taste - this makes a fantastic veggie dip! Ingredients:
1 cup mayonnaise |
1/2 cup sour cream |
1/2 cup buttermilk (for a thinner dressing use 3/4 cup) |
2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce |
1/8-1/4 teaspoon dried dill weed (or to taste) |
3 teaspoons dried parsley flakes |
2 teaspoons fresh minced garlic (or use 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder) |
2 teaspoons dijon mustard (or to taste) |
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste, i use seasoned salt) |
1 large green onion, minced |
tabasco sauce (optional and to taste i like to add it in to boost the flavor even more) |
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, buttermilk, Worcestershire sauce, dill weed, parsley, garlic, Dijon mustard, black pepper, salt and minced green onion; whisk until well blended.
2. Adjust the amount of salt and pepper if needed and add in some Tabasco sauce if desired.
3. Cover and refrigerate for a minimum of 4 hours before using or overnight, the longer the better.
