Ree Drummond’s homemade ranch dressing, as seen on Food Network's The Pioneer Woman, Season 1

Mince the garlic with a knife and then sprinkle on the salt and mash it into a paste with a fork.

In a bowl, combine the garlic paste, mayonnaise, sour cream, parsley, dill, chives, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, vinegar, paprika, cayenne and hot sauce. Add the buttermilk to desired consistency and mix to combine, tasting frequently and adjusting seasonings as needed. Chill for a couple of hours before serving, thinning with more buttermilk if needed.

I made the recipe according to directions except I had no garlic and used lemon juice instead of vinegar. The proportions of chopped herbs can be varied according to what you have on hand, but whatever you do, do not skimp on the dill! Fresh dill is the magic ingredient here, in my opinion. This dressing is an excellent substitute for tartar sauce. The dressing thickens on standing, making it a great veggie dip. Thin it with a little more buttermilk if you prefer a more pourable dressing--not too much, or the dressing will be too tangy.

Delicious but I’d add a little less salt next time

I love this recipe. I haven’t been able to buy commercial dressing since I started making it. The real herbs can’t be matched by commercial. My family and friends love it.

I love it when people leave a review for a recipe but then add this or omit that. At that point you have not made THIS recipe, therefore you are not reviewing THIS recipe!!

BEST RANCH EVER! I didn’t add the spicy-ness to it since my husband doesn’t eat spicy. But the ranch is heavenly!! :) will definitely be a staple at home from now on. 

Delicious!  Made it according to the recipe, it does have a small amount of heat, so if you don’t like any spice, omit the hot sauce and cayenne.  But I thought it was delicious.  It was even better the next day after the flavors had melded.
