This homemade ranch skips the packet mix in favor of fresh garlic, buttermilk, and chopped herbs for a tangy, creamy dressing. It thickens nicely in the fridge, making it ideal for salads, dipping vegetables, or drizzling over wings. A quick whisk is all it takes before chilling to let the flavors meld.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Method

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, buttermilk, and sour cream until smooth.

  2. Add the minced garlic, chives, parsley, dried dill, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until fully combined.

  3. Stir in the lemon juice and whisk again until the dressing is smooth and uniform in color.

  4. Transfer the dressing to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld.

  5. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or lemon juice if needed before serving.
