Preparation

  1. For the 3 dressings, simply mix the ingredients in a container or bowl and combine them. A simple procedure.

Anyway, there are a few things to keep in mind:

TIPS:

  • In the case of ranch dressing , if you use fresh garlic and onion, it is best to blend it with a blender or in a food processor to obtain a smooth and uniform texture.
  • Regarding the shelf life of the dressings, both the Italian dressing and the honey mustard dressing keep well for 1 week in the refrigerator.
  • Ranch dressing can also last 3 to 5 days in the refrigerator , but if you make it with fresh garlic and onion, this time is cut in half.
  • Variety of Ingredients : While these recipes provide a solid base for each dressing, feel free to experiment with different ingredients based on your personal preferences. You can adjust the proportions of the ingredients or add fresh herbs and spices to give each dressing a unique touch.
  • Desired consistency: If you prefer a thicker consistency for your dressings, you can add more mayonnaise or yogurt. On the other hand, if you want a thinner consistency, simply dilute the dressing with a little water or lemon juice.
