Hello and welcome to In the Kitchen with Matt.
I am your host, Matt Taylor.
Today, I'm going to show you how to make
homemade ranch dressing.
Yummy.
I love ranch dressing.
It's my favorite salad dressing.
And I love dipping my fresh veggies.
And it is so good.
I go through a lot of ranch.
I just eat so much of it.
Super easy to do.
Really yummy to make it at home.
If I can do it.
You can do it.
Before I move on, make sure to subscribe to my channel and hit
that notification bell so you don't miss out on any of
my new videos.
Let's get started down below.
In the description box, you'll find a list of the
ingredients and their amounts.
And so I'm going to begin with a small little bowl here,
and we're going to do equal parts of mayo,
buttermilk and sour cream.
I have a video for How to Make Your Own Buttermilk here on
my channel, as well as how to make your own sour
cream as well.
In case you don't have any here in the United States,
buttermilk and sour cream are readily available
and pretty cheap.
So I'm just going to add these.
That's a half a cup
of sour cream.
And you can play with the amounts,
especially the mayo.
If you don't want to use a full half cup of mayo, you can use
like a fourth of a cup.
But.
A classic homemade ranch uses kind of equal parts of
three of these.
And then buttermilk.
I'm just saying.
Coming here with a whisk.
We're going to whisk this together.
Simple as that, and you can honestly just use it as is,
but it won't taste nearly as well as if you add all these
extra ingredients and all these extra ingredients are
all optional, but they all help to make it amp up the flavor.
So I'm going to begin with about two tablespoons of
fresh parsley,
and you can use dry parsley if you want,
about a tablespoon, tablespoon and a half of fresh
green onion, or some people will use chives instead.
Dill.
Fresh dill.
I love fresh dill.
This is about two teaspoons of fresh dill.
I'm going to whisk these in.
Yeah.
About a half a teaspoon to a teaspoon of a garlic powder.
Or he can use fresh, minced garlic if you want.
Half a teaspoon of onion powder, about a half a
teaspoon of apple cider vinegar.
This just adds a little extra zing or whiskey's all
in there.
Okay.
Switch over to.
Already.
It looks like ranch dressing.
So amazing.
And then we're going to do a little bit of salt and
pepper to taste.
I usually do about
a half a teaspoon or so of salt.
Again, you can
play with the ingredients, the amounts.
I encourage you to make it like this first and then
adjust as needed.
But really, if you don't like one of the ingredients,
then don't add it at all.
A little bit of black pepper.
About an eighth of a teaspoon of black pepper, about a half a
teaspoon or so of salt.
And then to add just a little bit of freshly squeezed
lemon juice, about a teaspoon.
And you can add a little bit more.
Add some more zing.
And there we go.
Look at that.
Fresh homemade ranch dressing.
And then you can chill this in the refrigerator until you want
to serve it.
The longer you chill it, the more the ingredients will
kind of melt the gather and the better will taste and thicken
up also in the fridge.
And then what I'll do is I'll just give it a little taste.
It's really, really good as is.
I don't feel like I need to add anything more, but if once you
taste it, you could add a little bit more salt,
a bit more pepper.
Any one of the extra ingredients if you want.
Well, there you go.
Super easy.
Homemade ranch dressing.
Super yummy.
If I can do it, you can do it.
