Buffalo Wild Wings Southwest Ranch Copycat Recipe
Hey there, fellow food lovers! Let’s talk about something close to my heart: the Buffalo Wild Wings Southwest Ranch dressing.
Equipment
- Whisk
Ingredients
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- ⅓ cup full-fat sour cream
- ⅓ cup buttermilk plus 1 tablespoon
- 1 tablespoon minced dried parsley
- ½ teaspoon dried dill weed
- 1½ teaspoons McCormick Mild Taco Seasoning
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients
- Before diving in, ensure you’ve got all your ingredients ready. This helps you stay organized and ensures you haven’t missed anything.
Step 2: Mix the Base
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, and buttermilk. Use a whisk to blend these ingredients well. The goal is a smooth mixture without any lumps.
Step 3: Introduce the Herbs and Spices
- Add the dried parsley, dried dill weed, and McCormick Mild Taco Seasoning. Whisk these into the creamy base you’ve just made. The mixture should start adopting a lovely speckled look.
Step 4: Season to Perfection
- Add salt and black pepper to your liking. I usually recommend starting with just a pinch and gradually adjusting it. You can always add more later, but you can’t take it out!
Step 5: Let it Rest
- This is crucial. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Notes
- Mayonnaise: You can opt for a lighter version, but the texture might slightly change.
- Sour Cream: Greek yogurt could be a suitable alternative, but keep in mind it will tweak the taste.
- Buttermilk: If you don’t have buttermilk, a mix of regular milk and a splash of white vinegar could serve as a substitute.
- Dried Herbs: Fresh herbs can be used instead of dried. However, you’d need to double the amount.
- Taco Seasoning: Adjust this to control the spice level. If you’re a spice fan, go wild!
