Homemade Ranch Dressing (Gluten-free even)

While on vacation we decided we liked the flavor of the Restaurant Ranch Dressing (for dipping fries,etc) better than the ‘name brand’ gluten-free Ranch Dressing we have been buying for years.  I asked around and found out we probably could buy ‘Restaurant style’ Ranch Dressing, but it comes in large containers – about a gallon.

So, I did a Google search and found ‘Chili’s Ranch Dressing Recipe’ on http://www.food.com

Ingredients: 1/4 cup mayonnaise,  1/4 cup sour cream,  2 tablespoons dill pickle juice, 1 tablespoon buttermilk, 1/8 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley, 1/4 teaspoon onion powder, 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder ,1 dash pepper

Directions: 1)  Combine mayonnaise, sour cream and dill pickle juice in a medium-sized bowl. 2)  Add in buttermilk. 3)  Stir in the rest of the ingredients. 4)  Chill for about 30 minutes.

Now to see how long the juice in my new jar of dill pickles lasts.  I may have to find a recipe for ‘dill pickle juice’  🙂

Enjoy – H
