Hi
Is there a way I thicken this up, I like use thick ranch dressing when eating with buffalo wings.
Maybe try to use a bit more of the thicker ingredients such as sour cream or mayo, but it will alter the taste a little!
Hello
Chives is not something easy to get in my country Is there is any alternative ?!
Muy buena!!!
Gracias, Gloria!
Where did you get the bottle you have the dressing in? I love it! I looked on your link above, but I could not find it. Thank you. I love your site.
Hi! I got it at a local antique store. Etsy has a variety as well!
I love a good ranch dressing! Thanks for sharing. Store bought doesn’t even compare.
