Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, sour cream, mayonnaise, freshly ground black peppercorns, dried chives, dried dill, dried parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. (5 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or transfer the dressing to an airtight container. (2 minutes)

03

Step
8 hrs

Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and deepen. This step is crucial for achieving the best flavor. (3 hours - overnight)

04

Step
2 mins

Before serving, give the dressing a good stir. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed, adding a pinch more salt or pepper to your preference. (2 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try using freshly minced garlic instead of garlic powder.
If you prefer a thinner dressing, add a tablespoon or two of buttermilk until you reach your desired consistency.
This dressing is also fantastic as a dip for vegetables or chicken wings.
