Dawns Ranch Dressing Recipes

This recipe is an adaptation of several recipes and the way I prefer to have my ranch dressing. Add more milk as needed for a thinner dressing. Chill at least 30 minutes for flavors to blend. Will keep about a week in the refrigerator.

It's been ages since I made homemade ranch dressing, and I'd forgotten how much better it is than the bottled stuff.

The original dressing served in the 1950s at Hidden Valley Ranch, a guest ranch near Santa Barbara, Calif., was made mostly from dry herbs and aromatics. To recreate that taste, this recipe is made with garlic powder instead of garlic, dried parsley instead of fresh, and so on. It makes enough seasoning mix for about 4 cups dressing; you can mix it, store it, then add dairy as needed. If you don't like the zip of mustard, try hot sauce or Worcestershire sauce instead - or simply omit for a milder taste. To make a thick dip instead of a pourable dressing, reduce the amount of buttermilk to 1/4 cup.

This ranch dressing is great because it doesn't have all the chemicals and preservatives that many do. You can also use buttermilk in place of the sour cream, if you like.

I offer you here a blueprint dressing you can use for endless variations. The three that follow are classic combos, but I hope you'll be inspired to put your own spin on them. A few more ideas off the top of my head: stir in a spoonful of pesto or a spice blend; swirl in some chili oil or blend with a spoonful of herb sauce. Play around with different combinations and don't feel limited to use them on lettuce alone. Creamy dressings make great dips for crudités or chips, of course, but can work as a sauce for poached shrimp or simple seared fish. A smear can do wonders for a plate of boiled potatoes or (cooked from frozen) French fries.
