Something Edible on Video: Southwest Style Ranch Sauce (Who cares that it’s Reduced Fat?)
Abstract:
Just what the hell is "Southwest Ranch Sauce?" It shows up on the menus of so many fast food and casual dining restaurants, that sometimes I reckon you could call it the "special sauce" of the 21st century. Well, whatever title you wanna bestow on it, I reckon it's popularity stems from that blend of cool, creamy, and seasoned just spicy enough that seems to go with just about anything that you can lay out in a taco night spread. My take on Southwest-style ranch eschews a good portion of the fat that typically comprises a ranch dip or dressing by using strained or Greek yogurt. In this video, You'll not only see how quickly and easily this Southwest ranch dip and dressing comes together, but you'll also learn a great method for straining your own yogurt, so you won't have to see the loan officer at the dairy case for going Greek. This ranch dressing is so packed with flavor, you're bound to forget about all the fat; and it goes without saying that this recipe simply beats the buhjeezus out of anything peddled in a bottle, jar, or tub at the supermarket.
