Ranch Dressing | Kenji's Cooking Show
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 чер 2020
- This ranch dressing hits all the right notes but is better than the stuff you can buy at the supermarket.
Here's the basic recipe:
1/2 cup full-fat yogurt
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 teaspoons granulated garlic
1 teaspoon granulated onion
2 whole garlic cloves, finely minced or pressed through a garlic press
1/4 cup minced fresh dill or 2 teaspoons dried dill
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons minced fresh chives or 2 teaspoons dried chives
1 tablespoon juice from 1 lemon or lime
Pinch cayenne or other hot pepper powder
Salt to taste
Whisk it all together, let it sit for at least a couple hours in the fridge or preferably overnight.
Here's the Renegade Cut episode about the Matrix that I mentioned: • The Matrix - Renegade Cut - Навчання та стиль
Forget the whisk footage, that whisk-dip move in the mayo was sorcery
Ultimate MasterClass move
Kenji is giving away valuable secrets
it probably is also exactly equivalent to a cup of mayo.

This guy's fucking amazing. I love Kenji!
All he did was dip a whisk in mayonnaise
You can only call it Ranch if it's from the Hidden Valley region of California. Otherwise it's just sparkling mayonaise.
This is an excellent comment 🙌🏼
Lmao
But where is hidden valley?
@@eerreet5649 No idea, it's actually really well hidden.
@@eerreet5649 Just north of Santa Barbara
When you start realizing you know where kenji puts stuff in his kitchen from all the times you’ve watched his videos
Yeah I'm watching these videos and a lot of times and not even paying attention to the recipe, I'm just paying attention to how he has his kitchen laid out so that if I can ever customize my kitchen in the future I know how I would do it
* When you know his kitchen better than yours * 😂😂
Hit you that 200th like! 👍🏼
Shoutouts to Renegade Cut and Chinese Cooking Demystified...I feel like Kenji is wasting his time on the internet during the pandemic the same way I am!
Chinese Cooking Demystified is the bomb.
haha same here!
"But at least we're all wasting time together."
What about bwb?
I love how people hated the intro so much that he took it out but he loved it so much that he made it the outro
It’s a win-win situation for everyone!
It just works as an outro
Fits way better that way, I'm glad he made the change!
I liked it
Quick nerdy little kitchen tip that I feel like Kenji would appreciate: if you slice the very end off your lemon or lime before pressing in the juicer it allows it to turn more fully inside out and I find let’s you get more juice for your squeeze
I’ve never seen a whisk cam, now I really want to see it.
I know we'll regret it...but we need to see it
@@iamsheeting9192 wrong site
I don’t know. Seeing him whisk that together made me kinda nauseous thinking about what it would have looked like.
@@Inigmasshadow i mean he also had done mortar and pestle cam. But the footage got corrupted
Now i really want to sew tiny whisk cam
Kenji's trying real hard to convince me that I'm not in the Matrix...
a little too hard...
*Agent Kenji
Excuse me sirs, do you have a moment to talk about escape from the matrix at our Simulationist Church?
Meetings every saturday at 9 p.m. BYOB.
"We're not living in The Matrix"
FOR ALL YOU KNOW!!
Big ups for mentioning Renegade Cut. Leon is a real one, always love his analyses.
"We're not living in the Matrix"
He's so confident when he says that... SUSPICIOUSLY confident
i love how kenji talks about all of my favorite cooking channels
Kenji > Babish
@@JohnHausser dude, no question about that. Cooking knowledge and skill? Kenji all the way. Production value? I would have to give it to Babby. Can we just stop comparing and just enjoy their company?
@@JohnHausser chinese cooking demystified>everything that isn't bwb, adam ragusea, glen and friends cooking, or joshua weissman
Hey Kenji! Can you do a video on tips of cleaning as you go, mise en place, and generally keeping a clean and organized kitchen?
Yes, please!
I would also love to see that video. You have probably had these good habits for so long it might be hard for you to break down but I really like watching your videos a few times so I can break down your work flow and try to pick up on pro tips. The baby trash can for scraps on the counter blew my mind, for example.
I can barely make a PB&J but I am fascinated by your videos! You're a true pro and can really tell you are passionate and a student of your craft. Keep up the great work Kenji!
I was not expecting a shoutout to Renegade Cut! It really is a great underrated analysis channel
Friendly FYI. There's a discrepancy between the video recipe and the recipe in the description. Follow what Kenji does in the video and only use *one* clove of garlic, *not two* as it says in the description. I made the recipe last night and followed the description and I ended up with Garlic sauce instead of ranch dressing. All the other ingredient measurements are good :)
I did the same thing with mayo once, except I was like two cloves won't hurt! Never again
FWIW I tried grating the garlic and it was way too sharp for me. I ended up grating the garlic into lime juice first (pretty sure Kenji's talked about this before) and got a way more mellow garlic flavor.
Chinese cooking demystified is hands down one of the best cooking UA-cam channels, really worth checking out!
Truth!
Hidden Valley ranch from a powder packet with buttermilk and dukes mayo can’t be beat. I appreciate all fresh versions and despise every shelf stable version. I’m a proud ranch lover. Kudos on giving ranch some love.
2:43 That sounds like what somebody running The Matrix would say...
It does my heart good to hear a certified, professional and well accomplished chef who popularized the friggin' reverse sear method actually make a bingeing with babish reference.
I am proud as a youtuber.
Yes but it's not babish who calls msg something kelp so it was just a mention if anything
UA-camrs referencing other youtubers is TIGHT
I love the outro, these videos are absolutely incredible so thank you so much!
These videos are the only thing keeping me alive during quarantine
I make it at least once a week...switch up the herbs sometimes (dill/cilantro) and sometimes will add crumbled blue cheese too. Last week I crumbled and added a smoky blue cheese and it was amazing. I blitz mine with the hand-held thingy and add a bit of jalapeño if I'm making a mexican recipe. So many variations and they are all delicious...
I love renegade cut!!! Dude, excellent taste in UA-cam channels 😁
This was soooooooo good. Thanks Kenji, you rock man.
Your kitchen organization is goals.
Thank you Chef! I have learned so much from your videos! Been watching since your 1st POV french omelette video.
It’s a pepper from the Basque region of France. The Pyrenees region next to Spain.
Andrew Rea at BWB is the big step that lead me here several months ago! I love that I got into this channel right when it was taking off into daily shows. I was looking into cookbooks and recipes, even binged Serious Eats (thank you Stella Sparks for making it AMAZING to watch) to see what this Babish guy was going on and on about. Here I am, 3rd month into quarantine, and I'm making the best food I've ever made. Praise to you Mr. López-Alt for being so awake and keeping it real! I hope Mr. Rea squealed like I did hearing his name lol!
Hahaha Kenji's really stepping up the production. Love the outro!
I was so hyped for the whisk cam too. Yoo, those spice racks! I'd love to see some vids on the DIY home stuff you do.
You know he's a legit UA-cam chef because he has a Whisk Cam.
He's Narcos
Kenji mentioning Renegade Cut is like the crossover I never knew I wanted
I like how that spice jar was just sitting there all by itself
Not gonna lie kenji grabbing all that Mayo out of the jar with a whisk just blew my mind a little bit
Nice RenegadeCut shoutout! Also, odds don't look good that we aren't in a simulation lol.
ive never understood the ranch passion - but i could get behind this - and that peppergrinder is BEAST!
So good. Now I like Ranch. Thank you Kenji!
Thx for this! Ex pat who grew up in Midwest who doesn’t have access to Hidden Valley needs this.
"Ranch really is good, huh?"
^___^
Kenji, I got the Kan knife you recommended and am very happy with it. The feel of the grip is good and I was concerned about getting it without testing it, but I think it is a very good value.
Look at Kenji’s videos all growing up! Tracked text, his own outro, and a new logo to boot!!! Can’t wait to see where the channel goes in the future.
That outtro is so good.
kenji i haven’t watched u in a couple weeks and not sure when u added it but i love the outro!! it’s perfect :)
Finally subscribed to your channel. Love your POV videos and your cooking tips.
gives me fond memories of dipping my dad's homemade pizza in ranch dressing mixed with tabasco
Sitting it over night really brings out the flavour
Renegade Cut! The only good movie analysis channel
I love Renegade Cut!
fun fact; i accidentally switched the video upside down on my phone and realized it at the end because it was really pleasent to watch as someone filmed it ^^ may someone try it out haha and nice videos man - keep it up
Requesting permission to put this video on my website, showing the knife skills you used with the KAN Core chef knife.
sure!!
@@JKenjiLopezAlt you need to get the saltillo tile re done in your kitchen there is a dude up by you that does that type of work ua-cam.com/video/rEYEsx8H5GM/v-deo.html
damn. i didn’t know i needed this until now. thanks Kenji!!
Yooo, Renegade Cut mention. Great channel!
Gotta love those all-natural purified seaweed crystals.
And gotta love CCD as well.
Your new spice drawers! They look awesome!
Oh man, I thought I was genius a couple weeks ago for using Greek yogurt in ranch. Now I feel like a validated genius.
I don't keep sour cream around, so I use yogurt whenever a recipe calls for sour cream and it works perfectly well (for me).
No way. Kenji watches Renegade Cut! That channel is so good.
I needed this yesterday. Not even joking.
A little shichimi togarashi in ranch is also incredible, with the orange zest as well as the dried chilis and chili powder!
Fuuuuck yeah. I’m a ranch man. I’ve gone on ranch tours through multiple cities. And know my favorite chef has a released ranch video.
I know this is long after the video was posted, but I tried this recipe because I’ve been missing the ranch dressing I’d get back home in MI. Let me just say this is SO good! I’m homesick so this quelled that a bit, kudos!
Yum! I love making my ranch with Greek yogurt.
That '90s video game music and graphic at the end are too funny!
I’ve been making this for a few months. Stopped at Wursthall last week and it’s 100% the same recipe/taste. So damn good with the KFC bites!
Dipping jack in the box tacos in ranch is fantastic as well.
Once you try it there’s no goin back
The crunch of those peas made my mouth water >.
Thanks for these straight forward, no bs cooking episodes. You've really helped me level up my cooking game. Also I've been trying to buy essential stuff I haven't thought to have until I see how you use them. Anyways, keeping the anxiety/stress down while me and mine work through these strange times. Much love from the Big Easy!
when shabu and jamon started barking, my dog ran toward the front door barking
You just blew my mind with the lime press.
I, as a Belgian, have never had ranch before, because I don't think we have it here. I've looked it up couple a times but never really got to try and make it because it usually was in (to) small batches, to really make it for a group. I did however wanna try to make it for myself with one of the first recipes I found online but decided afterwards to not try to give it to my guests the day after. However you seem to give me a complete different idea of what I first read and will most likely try this again soon! I've been stoked to taste this most beloved American condiment. I'll try this and maybe a buttermilk 'original' version of this! I'll keep my thoughts posyed here!
As americain, this is the better version of the original with buttermilk .....
Would love to learn from you man. Seem like a very calm and collect teacher.
Always nice to get a confirmation on that we are not living in the matrix. Have some kind of grounding effect I think. Nice dressing btw!
A warning for people making this: the 2 tablespoons of dried dill in the recipe is a ton, your dressing will be full of dill and it's gonna be a really pushy front taste. I'd choose to use fresh dill if possible as well. Otherwise: great stuff!
Hey Kenji, would you be interested in doing a kitchen layout tour video? I think people would be interested in how you set up your kitchen at home, what you like, how you use it, and what'd you'd change if anything at all. Thanks!
I came here from BwB but I stayed but the cooking! A cross over between those 2 would bring about world peace
he is such a dad and I love it :,)
Love love love the outro!!!!
Renegade Cut is great!!
Man i wondered what ranch was after hearing it referenced everywhere (European here). On top of that you shout out one of my favorite channels, you're alright ranch man.
I only like ranch with raw vegetables (i.e. cauliflower, carrots, celery, mushrooms, cukes, radishes) as a dip. Thanks, Kenji!😘
Mmm. Ranch dressing. Best with some fried artichoke hearts.
BitsOfPretzels oh dang. That sounds really good, I’ll have to try that sometime
That sounds delightful!
Yes! I roast them until nearly crispy with lots of brown and then dip them in ranch:)
The Giant Artichoke Castroville ,CA !
Anyone know who makes the knife he uses here (and in many other videos)?
Been a bartender for almost 20 years now, you can usually get a little extra juice from those squeezers by turning it 90 degrees after squeezing.
Made this and loved the flavor profile (heck ya on the cayenne). Just one very minor nit. This is quite thick and is more a dip than dressing. I had to add a little water to thin it out for my salad. No more store bought for me.
Ayyyye i love renegade cut and now kenji wven more for the shoutout
I would have never thought dill. i thought i didn't like dill, I guess i was wrong! looking forward to trying this-thank you!
Add a couple TBS of fish sauce. elevates ranch. stumbled on it making ceasar salad while out of anchovies.
I was ready for whisk-cam and appreciate the early warning.
Dear Kenji, For me (Puerto Rican living in Mexico) Valle Escondida is closer to Dark Valley.. Here in Oaxaca we have a Puerto Escondido (HIdden Port) so for su I think it would translate Valle Escondido. If in Peruvian Spanish itis indeed Valle Oscura I will defer becausee Standard American (the continent) Spanish always gravitates to Peruvian usage. Love your vids Jim Oaxaca Retired
Knowing stuff like this really comes in handy. I had some really lame chicken tenders from the supermarket -- no spiciness at all -- and I added a few drops of Cholula and something else (can't remember) and heated them up in the oven. They were much tastier. So I said to my gf, I can make some sorta fake ranch dressing to go with this and whipped it up in about 2 minutes using mayo and some evaporated milk. It worked just fine. I came back here to refresh my memory: dill, garlic and black pepper, and other ingredients to taste.
Kenji confirming casually and by accident that he is aware of the real-time simulation in which we all live. 👀 👀 👀
Thank you for this awesome recipe! I’ve made this a dozen time and love it. I have switched to using cream instead of yogurt for the texture and wonder if you had a reason for using the yogurt over cream? Thanks so much for all the work you put into each video!
Flavor.
Ah, ranch dressing, a Midwesterner's favorite condiment/dipping sauce/all-around food enhancer. Grew up in Michigan and we'll dip anything in ranch, especially pizza.
I love ranch dressing, especially with onion rings.
Loving the outtro!
The outro is gold
Wow my ranch is so similar to yours. Im giving myself a pat on the back right now. Yogurt and lime instead of buttermilk for the win. Also I use Japanese mayo 😋
Thanks, FuckOFF88!
Here in central Austin we have a few local tex-mex chains that have cilantro jalapeno ranch. Its soooo good
Oh my god I love the outro. It felt a little out of place as the intro, but it fits perfectly where you have it now, in my opinion. Keep it, for sure!
The outtro is fantastic
8:39 Your deserve a nobel prize for this outro
The Fish Room you’re an outro
Wow, good one ass face
