Ingredients

    1/2 cup Buttermilk, Bulgarian style
    6 tbsp full-fat Sour Cream
    1/2 cup Duke's Mayonnaise
    2 clove Garlic, minced
    2 tsp dried Minced Onion

    Optional additions:
    * 2-3 Tb minced green onions (green and white parts; omit dried onion if you do this)
    * 1-2 Tb. minced chives
    * 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper and 1 tsp minced horseradish (this variation will make this dressing taste just like the one at Outback Steakhouse)

Tips

Duke's Mayonnaise is recommended because it's got the zip and zing that really makes this dressing amazing. If you can't find it, use Hellman's/Best Foods or Blue Plate if you can and toss in a 1/2tsp of apple cider vinegar. If you can't find Bulgarian buttermilk, just use what you have; it won't have quite the luscious mouthfeel but it'll still be tangy.

You don't have to stop at just salads with this dressing. It's also great as a vegetable dip and a spread for roast beef sandwiches.


Directions

Whir through a blender or food processor until very smooth. Store in a covered container in the fridge for up to 2-3 days.

Serving Size: 6 2-tb servings over your delicious green salad
