Homemade Ranch Seasoning Recipe (With a Secret Ingredient)
Why You’ll Love This Recipe My Homemade Ranch seasoning blend has fewer calories and won’t spike your blood sugar like the Hidden Valley version will. Why? Mine contains no maltodextrin (it’s the first ingredient in the Hidden Valley version). Maltodextrin has the same caloric value as table sugar, has a high glycemic index, and causes spikes in blood sugar levels. Based on my best analysis, this ranch seasoning recipe contains a lot less sodium. The homemade version has 20g of sodium per serving against Hidden Valley’s 60g. Making it yourself means you can steer clear of all of the chemicals, artificial flavors, and preservatives.
Copycat Outback Ranch Dressing - seriously the BEST ranch dressing I've ever eaten! Tastes just like the restaurant. Super easy to make! Whisk together mayonnaise, buttermilk, ranch dressing mix, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, paprika, and black pepper. Great on cheese fries, salad, and any recipe that calls for ranch dressing. This is our go-to ranch! I always have some in the fridge!
This homemade buttermilk is unlike any other you'll find online. I teamed up with my husband (who has a Ph.D. in Chemistry) to figure out how to make buttermilk that tastes as close to the store-bought versions we love as possible. Now I'm sharing the results and the best way to make buttermilk at home.
