Buttermilk Dressing

Andrew Underwood

Report

This creamy homemade buttermilk dressing with fresh herbs and lemon is better than any store bought variety and is easy to make. Chill the buttermilk dressing recipe for several hours for a thicker consistency.

Instructions

Add the minced garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, mayonnaise, kosher salt, black pepper and buttermilk in a small bowl. Whisk to combine.
Stir in the fresh herbs and taste for seasonings. Adjust as necessary.
Transfer the herb buttermilk dressing to a storage jar and refrigerate. The dressing will thicken as it chills, but you can use it immediately if you just can't wait.

Notes

Great as a dip for a crudite platter, or drizzled over your favorite salad.
*A serving is about 2 tablespoons (maybe a smidge more).
