Savory & Creamy Dressing Base


I just wanted to throw this into the blog because I was experimenting with it earlier today. The beautiful thing about this base is that once you've created it, you can customize it to match an infinite array of flavor profiles. Today, I added fresh dill, crushed garlic, and feta to the base. You could really add just about any herb to it. Don't be afraid to explore outside of the box - adding different vegetable purees, cheeses, and elements of citrus or salty items like capers or olive brine to kick it up a notch. The important thing is finding a combination that tantilizes the tastebuds of you, your family and friends! Enjoy!

1 Cup Mayonnaise
1 Cup 2% Milk
1/2 Cup Sour Cream
1/2 Cup Buttermilk
1 Tbsp. White Wine Vinegar
3-4 Dashes Worcestershire
Salt and Pepper to taste

TIPS: You may need to add milk to further thin the dressing. Be sure to taste frequently to ensure spice levels are correct, and remember, its easy to add more but its difficult to take it away!
