On the Ranch

Do you love Ranch dressing on lots of things: pizza crust, carrot sticks, French fries, bacon, and even salad?

Here’s a recipe from scratch.

At the Holler, we make the mayonnaise with olive oil and duck eggs. Decades ago, we used MSG to bring out the flavor in this dressing, but now we think Worcestershire sauce is a healthier idea.

Ranch Dressing

Ingredients

1 1/3 cups mayonnaise
1/3 cup sour cream
1/3 cup buttermilk
1 TBSP chives or scallions, minced
1/2 tsp dried dill weed
1/4 tsp tarragon
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 pinch salt
2 drops Worcestershire sauce

Stir all ingredients together thoroughly.

Cover and refrigerate overnight. Before you use the new batch, correct salt and pepper.
