Ranch has become synonymous with an uncultured, unadventurous American palate, thanks to people dipping their terrible chain pizza in it. I used to work at this redneck bar/restaurant in NC and I always felt like I came home covered in a thin layer of ranch dressing because it came out with everything.

I've been on kind of a personal mission to rehabilitate ranch dressing. A couple of weeks ago I made pork chops dipped in ranch and coated with panko and they were awesome.

Anyway, I still want some delicious salsa per this thread.

i'm not vegan but i file ranch dressing along with mayonnaise in the "i prefer the vegan version category". shit is gross otherwise

tartar sauce goes in that category too

ranch should not come in giant tubs or be reconstituted from powder, but hey, why not

iirc ranch was originally sold as packets to be mixed at home and not introduced as a bottle until later? though i know the O.G. HIDDEN VALLEY RANCH DRESSING was sold in bottles, but that was before its takeover of america?

otm -- before that it was sold as powder in packets and it was dip

also the USA apparently needs a widely popular salad-disguising liquid that ends in -nch because no one talks about French dressing anymore but it sure used to be everywhere

both are gross imo

You can still buy it in packet form! I had to bring one to a family gathering for someone's dip recipe.

We get it in premixed powder form. You can get a larger container of mix instead of packets at the big-box stores; I like it because I can make as much or as little as I want and it'll always be fresh.

if you guys don't stop talking about ranch dressing soon i am going to barf

Mayor Manuel (La Lechera), Thursday, 1 May 2014 19:49 (ten years ago) link

that's your problem. the ranch I had most recently was powdered, and we added roasted garlic to it. pretty tasty.

I also see the original hidden valley ranch location quite frequently:

by "powdered" I didn't mean a seasoning packet that you add buttermilk or w/e to but an actual powder you combine with water to make ranch sauce

I'm accepting of all permutations of ranch. Most people have a wine rack. I have a ranch rack. "We're opening up a 2009 bottle of Newman's Own for tonight's mozzarella sticks."
