Creamy, zesty sauce perfect for wings, salads, and wraps. Ready in 10 minutes with ranch and southwest spices.
# What You'll Need:
→ Base
01 - 1 cup mayonnaise
02 - 1/2 cup buttermilk, plus more as needed
→ Flavorings
03 - 2 teaspoons hot sauce
04 - 1 teaspoon ketchup
→ Seasonings
05 - 2 tablespoons dry ranch seasoning mix
06 - 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
07 - 1/2 teaspoon paprika
08 - 1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
09 - 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
10 - 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
11 - 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
# How To Make It:
01 - In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise and buttermilk until smooth and well combined.
02 - Add the hot sauce and ketchup; whisk again until fully incorporated.
03 - Add the ranch seasoning mix, taco seasoning, paprika, cayenne pepper, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until fully incorporated and the sauce reaches a creamy consistency.
04 - Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. For a thinner sauce, add more buttermilk one tablespoon at a time. For a thicker dip, reduce the buttermilk to 1/4 cup.
05 - Transfer the sauce to a jar or airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld. Serve as a dip for wings, fries, and vegetables, or drizzle over salads and wraps.
