Creamy Lemon Poppy Seed Dressing

Andrew Underwood

Report

This creamy, tangy, lightly sweet buttermilk dressing is so easy to make with a handful of everyday ingredients. This dressing thickens as you chill it, so make it a few hours ahead of time for the best texture. Makes about 1 3/4 cups of the best lemon poppy seed dressing that keeps up to 10 days in the refrigerator.
