Easy Homemade Ranch Dip Recipe

When it comes to dips, I dare say ranch dip is likely in the number one spot. I love it too, the flavors compliment so many snacks it’s become a staple. If you really love dill, toss in some fresh dill in addition to the dried to give it a bit of zip.

How to Make the BEST Ranch Dip Recipe

Ranch dip really isn’t just for dipping, I like to serve it in place of plain sour cream to top a loaded baked potato and as a condiment for sandwiches, burgers, sliders and subs. These different uses seem to always delight my family and guests.

Ingredients you’ll need to make homemade Ranch Dip: Mayonnaise, sour cream, buttermilk, fresh chives, parsley, garlic salt, onion powder, granulated garlic or garlic powder, white distilled vinegar, ground mustard, dried dill, granulated sugar and black pepper.
Kitchen tools you’ll need: Medium bowl, measuring cups and spoons, whisk or hand mixer.
You can make this dip lower calorie by adjusting the ingredients using your favorite brands of lighter versions of buttermilk, mayonnaise and sour cream.
The sugar used in the recipe is to balance the flavor. It doesn’t make the dressing sweet.
I recommend making this dip a couple of days in advance to give the flavors time to combine and become more robust. You will be delighted with the response from your snack loving friends.
If you enjoy garlic you can add fresh minced garlic to suit your personal taste. Keep the dip chilled and eat it within a couple of days.
