Introduction
Ranch dressing overtook Italian dressing as the nation’s most popular salad dressing in 1992,and now the creamy white dressing is found on everything from vegetables to chicken wings.
The stuff that comes in a bottle is mostly salt, oil, and other fats with little flavor. I created this
dried herb blend to take the place of the full-fat version. I like to mix a tablespoon of the seasoning
mix with 1⁄2 cup of low-fat plain yogurt. It’s still creamy and tangy but with much less fat. If you want
a dressing that does not stick to the spoon, try adding 1⁄4 cup skim milk or low-fat buttermilk to the
yogurt sauce. Use fresh or dried herbs, but be sure to let the dressing sit for a few hours in the fridge
to let the flavors fully develop.
This seasoning blend is great in pasta dishes, over fish or chicken, or added to soups. Compared
with the packaged variety you will save up to a half-teaspoon of sodium per serving. Ranch dressing overtook Italian dressing as the nation’s most popular salad dressing in 1992,
