Posted by: Site Administrator : Category: salad
Ranch dressing is one of those things that is easy to make, yet it’s something folks buy premade at the store. Here’s a quick recipe that uses no unpronounceable or questionable ingredients. It’s adapted from this recipe. Units listed are proportional parts.
- 1 ground dried thyme
- 2 onion powder
- 4 garlic powder
- 6 ground pepper
- 8 seasoned salt
- 8 dried parsley
For a single batch of dressing, 1 part = 1/8 teaspoon and yields 1 tablespoon of seasoning mix for 1 pint of dressing.
To make a large batch for use later, 1 part = 1/8 cup (2 tablespoons) and makes 1.5 cups of mix, enough for 24 batches (1.5 gallons) of dressing.
To make the dressing, mix:
- 1 Tablespoon seasoning mix
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup of
-
- Yogurt for thick dressing (you can also use varying amounts of yogurt and whey to adjust consistency)
