Harissa Ranch Dressing Recipe

Name: Harissa Ranch Dressing Recipe
Prep time: 5 min
Total time: 5 min
Ingredients: 1/3 cup (80g) crème fraîche; 1/2 cup (110g) buttermilk; 2 tablespoons (8g) chopped, fresh dill; 2 tablespoons (8g) chopped, fresh chives; 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder; 1/8 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper; 2 tablespoons (40g) store-bought or homemade harissa; 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Why It Works

Fatty and rich crème fraîche can hold up to the heat of harissa.
Garlic powder is key to that iconic "ranch" flavor.

Chipotle ranch is so old news. The mild heat of harissa makes this ranch dressing a perfect condiment for crispy, fried chicken sandwiches and a great dip to serve alongside buffalo wings. And, of course, it's great on any salad.
