Ingredients

For the Buttermilk Ranch Dressing Mix:

1/3 cup dry buttermilk powder
3 tablespoons dried parsley flakes divided
2 ½ teaspoons granulated garlic
2 ½ teaspoons granulated onion
2 teaspoons dried onion flakes
2 teaspoons dried dill weed
2 teaspoons dried chives
1 ½ teaspoons kosher or sea salt
1 teaspoon cracked or ground black pepper

For Dressing Made from the Mix:

1 cup mayonnaise
1 cup milk
3 tablespoons Homemade Buttermilk Ranch Dressing Mix

Instructions

To Make the Buttermilk Ranch Dressing Mix:

Put the buttermilk, 1 ½ tablespoons of the parsley flakes, granulated garlic and onion, onion flakes, dill weed, chives, salt, and pepper in the carafe of a blender. Pulse about 8 to 10 times, or until the onion flakes, parsley, and chives are broken down very small and almost powdered like commercially available ranch dressing mix. Stir in the remaining parsley flakes and transfer to a jar with a tight fitting lid. Store the mix in a tightly lidded container at cool room temperature in a dark place for up to 6 months. You may need to break up clumps from time to time. Shake the closed container to do so, or use a fork to break apart especially tenacious clumps.

To Make Buttermilk Ranch Dressing:

Whisk together all of the dressing ingredients until smooth and refrigerate for 30 minutes prior to serving. Use this dressing within 1 week of being made.
