Yid.Dish: Creamy Garlic Ranch Dressing
This is a really satisfying (and healthy) dip. When you taste it, you wont believe that it is made with yogurt! they key is to taste as you go – and keep adjusting the seasoning until it tastes just right (after all some garlic cloves are HUGE other are tiny, some are extremely potent others barely have any flavor at all … so trust your tastebuds.
