What it is

Buttermilk ranch dressing is a popular salad dressing made from buttermilk, mayonnaise, and seasonings like garlic, onion, and herbs. The "ranch" style originated in the United States in the 1950s. It's typically a creamy, tangy, and savory condiment.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use buttermilk ranch dressing as a flavor enhancer and a creamy sauce. It is commonly found as a dip for vegetables and appetizers, a topping for salads, and a spread for sandwiches and wraps.

Health notes

Buttermilk ranch dressing is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is not typically evaluated by international bodies like JECFA or EFSA as a standalone ingredient, but its components are. High intake may contribute to increased calorie and fat consumption, consistent with general dietary advice. Evidence does not link typical consumption to specific health outcomes.

Allergen info

Buttermilk ranch dressing contains milk, which is one of the nine FDA major allergens. It may also contain egg if mayonnaise is used. Gluten is not typically present unless added as a thickener or flavor enhancer.
