    The actual best Homemade Ranch Dressing Recipe. Made using mayo, greek yogurt or sour cream, buttermilk and tons of fresh spices. It's easy and absolutely delicious.

    If you've never had homemade ranch dressing before (and I'm not talking the mixed Hidden Valley version) then gear up because I'm about to change your life.

    This recipe is adapted from my talented sister in law Lauren from Tastes Better From Scratch. The first time I tried it I knew I wouldn't be buying ranch again anytime soon.

    Homemade Ranch Dressing Recipe

    One of the great things about this recipe, is that it can be used as either a dressing or a dip. The only adjustment you need to make is the amount of buttermilk you use. Whichever way you serve it, it's super easy and delicious.

    If you are into homemade dressings and dips you will also love our favorite Homemade Italian Dressing, or our Jalapeño Ranch Dip.

      Hi there, what is "white vinegar"?
      Here in Germany we have "white wine vinegar". Do you happen to know whether it's the same thing or must I just try it out?
      Thanks.
