This homemade ranch dressing is miles ahead of the store bought kind, with much greater flavor, and the advantage of being able to adjust the seasonings to your preferences.
It’s an eternal truth of American cuisine that ranch dressing works well with just about anything, but it tends to work much better if it’s this homemade version. Sure, you can buy a seasoning packet from the supermarket, but then you can’t up the garlic if you’re a garlic fiend, or tone down the dill if you’re not such a big fan. The dried parsley in this recipe provide a nice, herbal base, with the other spices adding layers of flavor on top, and the combination of buttermilk and mayo makes it perfectly tangy. When you taste this recipe, you’ll understand what ranch is really supposed to taste like, and you might find it hard to go back.
