Ingredients
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- ¼ cup Homemade Buttermilk or Real Buttermilk
- ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
- ½ teaspoon Onion Powder
- ¼ teaspoon Salt
- ¼ teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
- 1 teaspoon Distilled White Vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Hot Sauce or To Taste
Instructions
- Add mayonnaise, buttermilk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, ground black pepper, distilled white vinegar and hot sauce to a bowl.
- Whisk together until well mixed.
- Serve topped with fresh chopped parsley and with fresh veggies and veggie nuggets (or chips or fries) for dipping.
Notes
- Buttermilk. You can use proper buttermilk if you have it on hand or you can make homemade buttermilk. It's equally good either way. To make homemade buttermilk add 1 teaspoon of lemon juice to a measuring jug and then add room temperature milk up to the ¼ cup (60ml) line. Let it curdle into buttermilk.
- Distilled white vinegar - is just the perfect flavor blend for this dressing and I don't recommend using any other kind of vinegar.
- Hot sauce - you can use any brand of hot sauce. We made this dressing mildly spicy but you are free to dial up the spice factor by increasing the amount of hot sauce you add to the recipe.
- Storing. This dressing keeps very well in the fridge for up to 1 week. It's a great dressing to make ahead of time as the flavors can even seem to get better after it has chilled for a while in the fridge.
