Making your own creamy garlic dressing is surprisingly easy, and allows you to customize the flavor to your liking. Here’s a simple recipe to get you started:

Ingredients:

  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon chives cut fine
  • 1 scallion (green onion) cut fine
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons buttermilk (I made my own as I keep buttermilk powder on hand)

Instructions:

  1. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the creme fraiche, sour cream, and heavy cream until smooth.
  2. Add the minced garlic, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, buttermilk, apple cider vinegar, chives, and scallions and whisk until well combined.
