Hi, I am wondering if any of you can help me find or make the ranch salad dressing like the one you find on salad bars. It’s not real thick, and it’s definately not Hidden Valley or even Wishbone. It is the one that you would find in Shoney’s, Ryan’s, or pretty much any other self serve salad bar.
Outback Ranch Dressing
1 tablespoon hidden valley ranch dressing mix
1 cup mayonnaise (the real stuff)
1/2 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon coarse grind black pepper
1/8 teaspoon paprika
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
Yield; 1 1/2 Cups
Mix all of the ingredients in a medium bowl.
Chill at least 1/2 hour before serving which is the key step to maximize
flavor.
You can adjust the milk and mayonnaise quantities to suit your desired level of consistency…that is…reduce mayonnaise slightly and increase milk sightly. Not sure if this is waht you are looking for, but give it a whirl and let us know how you made out.
