Notes

How Do You Use Ranch Seasoning Mix To Make Ranch Dressing?

You can use this ranch seasoning as the flavoring to make delicious creamy homemade buttermilk ranch dressing. Here is a quick recipe to make it:

- 1 cup mayonnaise: Provides the creamy base.
- 1/2 cup buttermilk: Not only does buttermilk add a tangy flavor, it also thins out the dressing so it pours more easily.
- 2 Tablespoons ranch seasoning mix: You can adjust the amount slightly to your preference.

How Long Does Homemade Seasoning Last?

Ground spices and dried herbs can last anywhere from 1-4 years, depending on the type and storage conditions. So your homemade ranch seasoning should stay fresh for at least a year, if properly kept.

To store your homemade seasoning mix, keep in a sealed airtight jar or container. Store in a cool, dark place — the pantry should be perfect. Do not refrigerate.
