I found this years ago in a recipe book made by a local church auxiliary. I make it and use it as a dressing for pasta salad or tomato and cucumber Greek salad. I usually mix a day ahead and the flavors taste 100 times better!

GARLIC AND HERB BUTTERMILK DRESSING RECIPE

Garlic And Herb Buttermilk Dressing Recipe image

Provided by sulli5301

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1 cup buttermilk
1 1/2 cups real mayonnaise
2 Tbsp fresh chives, finely chopped and divided
2-3 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbsp flat leaf parsley, chopped
2 tsp sea salt or kosher salt
1 1/2 tsp sugar
1-2 tsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/8 tsp dried dill weed or 1/2 tsp fresh

Steps:

Whisk together the buttermilk and mayonnaise, then add the rest of the ingredients and seasonings. Whisk the mixture until the ingredients are fully incorporated and no lumps remain. When chopping the fresh chives and parsley, I recommend that you finely chop them so they'll incorporate evenly and the flavors will be released into the dressing. Reserve 1 tsp of the chopped chives for garnishing the top. Chill well for at least 4 hours before serving. Yield: Approx. 2 1/2 cups

Tips:

Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs will give your dressing the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount called for in the recipe.
Don't over-chop the herbs: When chopping the herbs, don't chop them too finely. You want them to be small enough to distribute evenly throughout the dressing, but you don't want them to be mushy.
Use a good quality olive oil: The olive oil is the base of the dressing, so it's important to use a good quality oil. Look for an extra virgin olive oil that is flavorful and has a fruity aroma.
Let the dressing sit for a while before using: This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop. If you're short on time, you can use the dressing right away, but it will be even better if you let it sit for at least 30 minutes.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasonings as needed: Once you've made the dressing, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice. You can also add a touch of sweetness with honey or maple syrup.

Conclusion:

Herb and garlic dressing is a versatile and delicious dressing that can be used on a variety of salads, vegetables, and meats. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful dressing, give herb and garlic dressing a try.
