Tips
If the buttermilk you used was thick, you’ll probably need a little milk to thin out this homemade buttermilk ranch dressing. If the buttermilk was thin, then you probably won’t need any milk. Note that the dressing should be on the thicker side though. My favorite side salad to make with this homemade ranch is either romaine or iceberg lettuce, shredded red cabbage, shredded carrots, diced Roma tomatoes, shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese, and croutons. You also can’t go wrong with sliced boiled eggs and bacon added in too.
