The recipe includes buttermilk powder, parsley (or alternatives like carrot tops), garlic powder, onion powder, dill, chives, salt, and pepper, with optional additions for sweetness or spiciness.
Rachel offered substitutions based on what might be available or preferred, such as using carrot tops instead of parsley and freeze-dried green onion tops in place of onion powder.
She highlighted the benefits of keeping buttermilk powder as a versatile pantry staple and how it can be easily mixed with water when needed.Making homemade mixes can save money and avoid unwanted additives found in store-bought versions.
Rachel illustrated this with the ranch mix, noting that a single bag of buttermilk powder costs less than multiple bottles of ranch dressing, and many ingredients can be homegrown.
The ranch seasoning mix is versatile, usable in various recipes beyond dressing, such as for chicken coating or popcorn flavoring.
Rachel encouraged viewers to explore other homemade pantry staples like taco seasoning, cake mixes, and hot chocolate mix, emphasizing the ease and benefits of preparing thes

  • I think schools should have videos like yours for Home Ec class. I’m in my early 70s and when I went to school we had Home ec. I learned so much in that class.

    i love that people are coming back to this. my mom and grandma made all there own stuff. and i have been doing it since the 80s and now my kids and grandkids do
  • I just made homemade buttermilk ranch dressing this morning. It’s a very forgiving recipe. I just trimmed a bunch of herbs from my plants and added to my dressing. I always keep a half gallon of buttermilk in my fridge, and everything else is just pantry staples. Once you make your own dressing, you will never go back to store bought
  • I just ♥️♥️♥️ you Rachelle.. your calm, sweet manner is SO refreshing in this Crazy, loud world…,✨
  • @elizaC3024
    Great video and recipe. I found out in 2019 that I have developed an allergic reaction to monosodium glutamate. It took my engineer husband's devotion to deduction to find it. He start focusing on cause effect, and found it. It was a mystery prior, because we looked at food's we were consuming, soaps, shampoo, laundry soap, lotions etc. But it was in spice mixes, salad dressing, sauces, crackers, and so much more. We went through every item in the house and gave 2 grocery bags full of items to family members. We now check every label, we rarely ate out before, so not doing it isn't an issue. The incredible thing is that I have no problem whatsoever when we travel throughout Europe. They don't allow that in their food. We all need to learn to scratch cook and avoid all of those chemicals.
  • @Lintriage
    I love this collaboration. There is nothing better than homemade!!
  • OMGosh, my son has a degree in culinary arts and business management. I told him all that money was wasted if they didn't teach him how to make ranch by the 5 gallon bucket.
  • Yes!! Timing is so funny! Today I was doing a restock of a few pantry items. I did ranch mix & taco seasoning. My family won't eat store bought ranch anymore. Lol. So glad you are a part of this collab.
  • I’ve been making my own Shake n Bake Coating, Taco Seasoning and BBQ Spice mix for years…. Such a Money saver… loved this video friend!!!
  • @SandraC
    The nice thing is you can control what goes in, like the amount of salt.
  • Montreal steak seasonings , Montreal chicken seasoning. Does any one have a recipe?
  • @amyswenson2551
    In our area Hidden Valley Ranch is over $7.50 a bottle…my son loves putting it on so many things. I started making my own about a year ago and is is so much cheaper and BETTER TASTING!!!

    My 5 yr old loves ranch so much I started making my own and that what he now prefers 😂
  • @StacyBeadle
    I love making onion soup mix, ranch mix, taco seasoning, chocolate syrup, and brown sugar. I’m always looking for more things to make from scratch. I have also made vanilla. So fun!
  • Thanks so much Rachel! My grandkids love ranch dressing and I am definitely making and storing in the freezer. That way I can always have it on hand.
  • @bperez185
