Homemade Buttermilk Ranch Dressing Recipe

bacon pepperoni sticks with buttermilk ranch dressing

The first time I made Buttermilk Ranch dressing I was beyond shocked by how good it was and why I hadn’t had it before. So was my entire culinary school class. If you haven’t tried “Real” Homemade Buttermilk Ranch Dressing you cannot start to imagine what I’m talking about.

It is nothing like the stuff you can buy at the grocery store. Homemade Ranch Dressing is full of fresh herbs, real buttermilk, creamy sour cream, this list goes on. The best part, it only takes a few minutes to make and store wonderfully in the refrigerator…

Making the Bacon Pepperoni Sticks

Layout one piece of Bacon on a cutting board. Make three cuts in the middle going down the length of the Bacon. The three pockets are where the pepperoni will be going.
Take three pieces of pepperoni and stack them on top of each other. Using a knife, make a cut from the middle to the edge. Kind of like a Pac-Man shape.
Take one piece of pepperoni and thread it through the first cut/hole in the bacon. repeat two more times with the other pieces of bacon
Place on a cookie sheet lined with Aluminum foil. Not parchment paper...
Bake at 400 for 12 minutes. Could take longer or less depending on the size of your bacon slices.

Making the Buttermilk Ranch Dressing

Using a food processor, Start by pre-chopping, shallot, garlic, herbs to help the food processor do a better job combining all ingredients.
Add all ingredients into food processor and turn on and allow all ingredients enough time to combine.
TSA - Taste-Season-"And Adjust"
Take a taste and see if the ranch dressing needs anything
For best results, make the day before to allow the flavors to develop.
Still very good to use the same day
