Blend all of the main ingredients in a food processor. You want to blend the ingredients together until they become a fine powder.

Add in the extra parsley and dill, and then give the processor a few quick blends. This part is just to give the ranch powder a little color, like you’d expect to see with store bought ranch dressings.

Funnel the powder into a mason jar and store in your freezer.

To make vegetable dip with the ranch powder, mix 2 tablespoons of dry mix with 1 cup of sour cream. When you first taste it, it’ll likely not taste like you expect. The longer you let it set, the more time the flavors have to meld together. So, try to give it at least an hour to sit in the refrigerator before dipping your veggies in the ranch.

To make salad dressing ranch with the powder, mix together 3 tablespoons of dry mix with 1 cup of mayonnaise and ½ cup buttermilk (regular buttermilk, not the dried powder). Again, the longer you let the dressing sit, the better the flavor will be – an hour in the fridge will be just fine. Better yet, double this batch so that you don’t have to make it every time you need some ranch for something.
