Ranch Dressing Mix Recipe
Description
The recipe involves mixing all dried ingredients—such as buttermilk powder, herbs, garlic salt, onion powder, dill, and seasonings—until uniform. Storing the mixture in an airtight container preserves its flavor. Pulsing in a food processor can create a finer, smoother texture, which disperses better when used in dressings or spices.
This seasoning mix can replace store-bought packets, often containing additives, and provides the signature herb and savory notes characteristic of ranch. Using it is flexible: two tablespoons of the mix typically substitute for one packet.
Keeping it refrigerated maintains freshness over time. It offers a convenient base to quickly prepare ranch dressings or to season meats, vegetables, and snacks with ranch flavor without premade sauces.
Ingredients
- 1 cup buttermilk powder
- 4 tablespoons parsley dried
- 2 tablespoons garlic salt
- 2 tablespoons onion powder
- 4 teaspoons chives dried
- 2 teaspoons dill
- 3 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
- Mix all the ingredients together. I placed mine in a mason jar.
- Then stir or shake together.
- Refrigerate in an airtight container. I used a mason jar.
- To get a smoother texture I recommend pulsing it into a food processor to make it smooth.
Notes
- This recipe yields about 1 1/2 cups of ranch dressing mix for multiple uses.
- Use 2 tablespoons of this mix as a substitute for 1 prepackaged ranch seasoning packet.
- Storing the mix in an airtight container in the fridge helps maintain its flavor and quality.
- Pulse in a food processor for a smoother powder if desired, enhancing mixability.
