Question 1

Can I make this ranch dressing dairy-free?

Accepted Answer

Yes! You can substitute the sour cream or Greek yogurt with a dairy-free alternative like coconut yogurt or a plant-based sour cream. Use a dairy-free milk, such as almond or oat milk, to adjust the consistency.

Question 2

Can I use fresh herbs instead of dried herbs?

Accepted Answer

Yes you can! Fresh herbs like dill, parsley, and chives add a vibrant flavor to the dressing. You will want to use three times the amount of fresh herbs as dried because fresh herbs are a less potent flavor.

Question 3

Why is my ranch dressing too thick?

Accepted Answer

The thickness of the dressing can vary based on the type of sour cream or Greek yogurt used. To thin it out, simply add a bit more milk, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.
