hello :)
I have a problem with ranch. Ranch dressing, or at least ranch flavored dipping sauces, seem to be REALLY GOOD or at least pretty good at almost ANY RESTAURANT, fast food or not. But anytime I get a bottle of ranch from the store or amazon or whatever it just doesn't taste loving good. Its like an old ranch taste left open overnight with like windex mixed in.

There has to be a better way. I almost googled it when I realized I'm a private member of an internet forum who's other members would most certainly know which ranch to buy to dip entire slices of pizza into. So who's been through the gauntlet to let me and anybody else know whats actually worth buying?

Thank you

I'm with you OP and looked for recipes for homemade ranch today that would match the good poo poo at restaurants. I'll let you know how it turns out when I get some mayo.

I sometimes wish I owned and lived on a ranch but it sounds like it’d be a lot of work. Any rancher goons have more insight into the rancher life?

it is a hell of lot of work. You got to take care of the cattle and the hands. Being a cowboy has nothing to do with guns, you just have to take care of the stupid cattle.

any dip considered in isolation gets real gross like you start fixating on modified maize starch and whey protein concentrate but this is not the right and natural scenario for a dip you must always have a dunkable to hand

You can mix it with Greek yogurt (unsweetened obviously) for a Ranch that won't kill you as quickly. Greek yogurt is better than sour cream anyway.

The answer is hidden valley mix packet. You can do it yourself with recipes online with spices from the cabinet but it’s not great unless you let it sit a day to soften the freeze dried chives

Proper ranch is made with buttermilk which is basically just yogurt without the thickeners
