Creamy, tangy, and irresistibly flavorful, "This Old House Dressing" is a homemade classic that will elevate any salad or dish it touches. Crafted with a luscious base of mayonnaise, sour cream, and a splash of whole milk, this dressing strikes the perfect balance with a touch of apple cider vinegar and honey for subtle sweetness. A savory blend of garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, and dill adds depth, while a hint of salt and black pepper ties it all together. Ready in just 10 minutes, this versatile dressing is ideal for drizzling over fresh greens, serving as a dip for crunchy veggies, or even as a zesty sauce for grilled favorites. Refrigerate it for an hour to let the flavors meld beautifully, and enjoy homemade goodness that's far better than store-bought! Perfect for meal prep, this dressing can be stored for up to a week, making it your go-to for effortless flavor.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, and whole milk. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
Add the apple cider vinegar and honey to the bowl. Whisk again to incorporate these ingredients thoroughly.
Sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, dried dill, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine, ensuring the herbs and spices are evenly dispersed throughout the dressing.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Add a pinch of salt or a drop of honey for balance, if needed.
Transfer the dressing to an airtight container or a glass jar with a lid.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Serve over fresh greens, as a dip for vegetables, or as a sauce for grilled dishes. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
