Creamy, herby, and free of the preservatives that give store-bought ranch a shelf life measured in geological time.

Ingredients

Method

  1. Whisk everything together in a bowl until smooth. Taste and adjust salt, lemon, and herbs.
  2. For a thinner consistency (dressing), add more buttermilk 1 tablespoon at a time. For a thicker consistency (dip), reduce the buttermilk.
  3. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes before serving — the flavors improve significantly after resting.
  4. *Storage:** Refrigerator for 5-7 days.
