Equipment

  • Small bowl
  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk or spoon
  • Cover (for the bowl)
  • Spoon or whisk (for folding)

Ingredients
  

  • ¼ teaspoon garlic salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper or to taste
  • ¾ teaspoon dried dill
  • ¾ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon dried parsley
  • ½ cup buttermilk
  • ¼ teaspoon salt or to taste
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper
  • ½ cup full fat sour cream
  • ¼ cup low fat mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon dried chives
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions
 

Step 1: Spice Mix Preparation

  • Begin by combining all the spices in a small bowl. Mix them thoroughly to ensure an even distribution of flavors. This spice mix will be the key to giving your ranch dressing its signature taste.

Step 2: Ranch Base Assembly

  • In a separate mixing bowl, gather the buttermilk, full-fat sour cream, mayonnaise, and lemon juice. These ingredients will form the creamy base of your ranch dressing.

Step 3: Mixing the Base

  • Using a whisk or spoon, blend the buttermilk, sour cream, mayonnaise, and lemon juice together until they form a smooth and creamy consistency. Make sure there are no lumps and all ingredients are fully incorporated.

Step 4: Chilling Time

  • Cover the bowl containing the ranch base and place it in the refrigerator. Allow it to chill for at least 30 minutes, or ideally up to an hour. Chilling helps meld the flavors together and enhances the overall taste of the dressing.

Step 5: Seasoning Addition

  • Once the ranch base has chilled adequately, remove it from the refrigerator. Sprinkle the prepared spice mix evenly over the surface of the ranch base. Use a spoon or whisk to gently fold the spices into the dressing until well combined.

Step 6: Taste Adjustment

  • Take a small taste of the ranch dressing and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Add more salt, pepper, or any other spices to achieve the desired flavor profile. Mix well to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the dressing.

Step 7: Ready to Serve

  • Your homemade Texas Roadhouse-style ranch dressing is now ready to be served! Transfer it to a serving dish or dressing container. Use it as a dip for vegetables, drizzle it over salads, or pair it with your favorite snacks. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Enjoy the delicious flavor of your homemade ranch dressing!

Notes

  • Use full-fat sour cream for a richer and creamier texture.
  • Adjust the amount of salt and pepper to suit your taste preferences.
  • For a spicier kick, increase the amount of cayenne pepper.
  • Let the dressing chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Double the recipe and store the extra ranch dressing in an airtight container for future use.
