Servings: 8 Yield about 1 cup
Calories: 50kcal
- ½ cup sour cream
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- 3-4 tablespoons Frank’s RedHot Original or your favorite hot sauce
- 1 tablespoon buttermilk powder or use 1-2 T buttermilk
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- ½ tablespoon fresh chopped dill or 1 teaspoon dried dill
- ½ tablespoon finely chopped chives
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
Add sour cream, mayonnaise, Frank's, buttermilk powder or buttermilk, onion powder, and garlic powder to a medium bowl and whisk until smooth. The buttermilk powder hydrates quickly.
Add the herbs, salt and pepper the whisk smooth. Allow the dressing to stand for 10-30 minutes for the flavors to blend, then serve as desired. Adjust the thickness of the dressing with a little milk to thin, or to thicken for a dip, add more buttermilk powder or sour cream and whisk smooth.
About buttermilk powder: it's a terrific ingredients to have in your pantry! No buying a quart of fresh buttermilk and tossing most of it. Just reconstitute when needed. The package says mix with water but I prefer to use milk.
Storage – Store in an airtight jar in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
