Seasonings
- 2 tablespoons freeze dried chives
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried dill
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Instructions
- Add the mayonnaise and sour cream to a medium mixing bowl and stir until smooth.
- Gradually stir in the buttermilk until the mixture becomes creamy and evenly combined.
- Add the chives, garlic salt, garlic powder, onion powder, dill, black pepper, and lemon juice.
- Stir until the seasonings and herbs are evenly distributed.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Stir the chilled ranch and taste.
- Add buttermilk one teaspoon at a time if you want a thinner dressing.

Use less buttermilk for a thicker dipping sauce. Add it gradually for a thinner dressing. For stronger garlic flavor, add garlic powder after chilling. For more herbal flavor, add extra chives or a small amount of dill.
