Buttermilk Ranch Dressing
Originally developed in the early 1950's by Steve and Gayle Henson, owners of Hidden Valley Ranch near Santa Barbara, California, this buttermilk version of ranch dressing takes their brilliant creation one step further - giving it a bolder flavor and creamier texture!
Being a native Texan, Buttermilk Ranch Dressing, especially homemade, has been dubbed by many as a "suth'n delight!"
