Best Veggie Dip on the Planet
Description
The Best Veggie Dip on the Planet combines sour cream and mayonnaise for a rich, creamy base enhanced with dry ranch seasoning powder to give a familiar ranch flavor. Adding grated onion contributes fresh, slightly sharp notes that cut through the creaminess, while a small amount of dill adds a mild herb tone. Seasoning salt rounds out the taste to balance flavors.
This dip's texture is smooth with occasional small bits from grated onion, making it well suited as a dipping sauce for crisp vegetables or snack chips. It is served cold for freshness.
For best results, the dip improves when prepared ahead of time and refrigerated, allowing the flavors to meld. The seasoning components can be adjusted according to individual taste preferences.
Ingredients
- ¾ cup sour cream
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons ranch seasoning powder dry, see note
- 1 tablespoon onion grated, see note
- ¼ teaspoon dill dried or 2-3 tablespoons chopped fresh
- ¼ teaspoon seasoning salt brand Redmond
Instructions
- Whisk together all the ingredients. Serve with fresh vegetables and/or chips.
- The flavors get better with time; the dip can be made several days in advance and refrigerated until ready to serve.
Notes
- Adjust the amounts of each ingredient to suit personal taste preferences for seasoning intensity.
- Both store-bought and homemade dry ranch seasoning powders can be used depending on availability and preference.
- Using a shallot or other onion types grated on small holes of a box grater yields good texture and flavor; avoid microplane graters for this.
- Choose a seasoning salt brand you like, as flavor can vary and affects the dip's final taste.
- The dip tastes better if made several days ahead and refrigerated to allow flavors to blend.
