Tips & Tricks to Nail the Recipe
- You can also add a bit of nutritional yeast to the vegan Ranch mix to lend it that cheesy flavor.
- Mustard powder can be another great addition to the mix, and can get it some more of that earthy, peppery flavor.
- If you don’t have the dairy free milk powder that the recipe calls for, you could make cashew milk powder with some ground roasted cashew and use it for the recipe.
How to Use Vegan Ranch Seasoning Mix
The simplest, easiest way to put this mix to use is to use it as the base to make vegan Ranch dressing. To do this, all you’ll need to do is combine about 2 tablespoon Ranch mix on hand with 1 cup vegan mayo and 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar.
This concoction can be used as vegan Ranch dressing or dip, and can be used in so many different ways.
You can also make a simple Ranch dip by combining the mix with some vegan sour cream or mayo until you get the right flavor and consistency. You can also use the Ranch dressing mix as a condiment for lots of different foods. Sprinkle some of it over your favorite fried foods or roasted foods that need a bit of flavor- I love tossing my roasted potatoes in this dry rub.
Troubleshooting & FAQs
You can transfer the dairy free Ranch mix in a clean glass jar just like I did, or in a mason jar if you want it in your pantry. Just make sure you’re storing it in a clean, moisture-free container and environment for it to last longer.
