Need a couple stock salad dressing recipes.

[Kali]

I gave up gross bottled dressing a while ago but the family still likes them, is there a website or does anybody have recipes that are like the name brand Hidden Valley Ranch and Wishbone Italian?

Not any of the "new" variants, just the old stand-bys.

Thanks in advance.

1. This looks like a good place to start

2. Sorry, I sure don't.

We always had vinegar and oil, with a little seasoning, when I was growing up and I still like it that way best. :hi:

3. Good question - I'm a lifelong Wishbone Italian junkie

I've tried to kick the habit, but it's just too ingrained. I'm thinking it might be hard to make, with all those little bits of "stuff" (onion, red bell pepper, whatever)

5. here's a copycat for ranch

4 tablespoons dry parsley flakes
1 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons onion salt
1 quart mayonnaise
1 pint sour cream
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons MSG or Accent brand (optional)
1 pint buttermilk

It's supposed to taste like Hidden Valley

6. Balsamic vinegar and honey

My friend's recipe. Equal amounts of balsamic vinegar and honey. Mix well. You might need to tinker with this a bit if it doesn't taste right to you. Maybe add a bit of salt, pepper or lemon juice. I like it with a tad more vinegar than honey. Otherwise, it's easy and tastes great!
