Ingredients

½ cup buttermilk
3 tablespoons good quality mayonnaise (We prefer Duke's or Kewpie)
2 tablespoons sour cream
2 teaspoons fresh chives, finely chopped
1 teaspoon fresh dill, chopped
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
½ teaspoon hot sauce (We prefer Valentina)
1 clove garlic, pressed or finely diced
¼ teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

Combine: In a small bowl combine all ingredients and stir to combine. If you want thicker consistency review notes for additional steps. The ranch is ready for your salad or as a dipping sauce for vegetables or chicken wings.
Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. The ranch dressing will store for up to five days. We like to make this the day before using it so the flavors can marry together.

Notes

Consistency: This ranch is meant to be a thinner consistency. If you want to thicken up the dressing we recommend following the recipe and adding 1 additional tablespoon of mayonnaise and 1 additional tablespoon of sour cream. Keep adding until you reach your desired consistency.
