Notes

Consistency Control: Adjust the buttermilk quantity based on your desired consistency. If you prefer a thicker dressing, reduce the amount of buttermilk slightly. Conversely, if you prefer a thinner consistency, you can increase the amount of buttermilk to achieve the desired thickness.
Freshness Matters: For the best flavor, use fresh herbs whenever possible. You can also experiment with different herb combinations to customize the taste of your ranch dressing. Additionally, using high-quality mayonnaise and sour cream will enhance the overall flavor and texture of the dressing.
Flavor Enhancement: Allow the flavors to meld by refrigerating the dressing for a few hours before serving. This resting time allows the herbs and seasonings to infuse into the base ingredients, resulting in a more flavorful and well-balanced dressing. Taste the dressing before serving and adjust the seasonings if necessary to suit your preference.
