Keto Ranch Dressing – FAQ & Tips
Is this dressing keto-friendly?
Yes. Made with full-fat mayonnaise, sour cream, and almond milk, this dressing is very low in carbs and perfect for ketogenic diets.
Consistency tips:
- Adjust the amount of almond milk to reach your preferred thickness. Less milk = thicker dressing for dipping; more milk = pourable for salads.
- For an even creamier texture, use full-fat sour cream and mayonnaise.
Flavor enhancement tips:
- Fresh herbs (parsley, dill, chives) can be used instead of dried for a brighter flavor.
- Add a pinch of smoked paprika or cayenne for a subtle kick.
- Letting the dressing rest for at least 1 hour in the fridge helps the flavors meld together.
Serving suggestions:
- Drizzle over fresh salads or roasted vegetables.
- Use as a dip for keto-friendly crackers, veggie sticks, or chicken wings.
- Mix into a tuna or chicken salad for extra creaminess and flavor.
Storage:
- Keep refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 10 days. Shake or stir before using if separation occurs.
Pro tip:
- For a thinner dressing, gradually whisk in more almond milk, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach the desired pourable consistency.
