Why This Recipe Works

For a quick, creamy buttermilk ranch dressing, we started with equal parts mayonnaise and buttermilk. The mayonnaise provided thickness while the buttermilk added a rich, distinct tang, especially when enhanced with just a squirt of white vinegar. Chives, cilantro, dill, and garlic rounded out the flavor for a dressing that is equally good drizzled over greens or pizza or served as a dip for chips or vegetables.
