Creamy Parmesan Dressing is so good it will turn the most boring salad into a mouth-watering side that you’ll wish was the main course. You can’t go wrong with a salad dressing that has buttermilk and mayonnaise as its base. This dressing is so super thick and creamy, you’ll want to eat it with a spoon.

If you do too, here are some more ways to use up leftover buttermilk: Buttermilk Pancakes, Homemade Buttermilk Bread, Old-Fashioned Buttermilk Doughnuts, Buttermilk Biscuits, Buttermilk Coleslaw, and Chocolate Buttermilk Cake.

Flavor of Creamy Parmesan Dressing

Fresh homemade dressing tastes so much better than bottled and this one is really simple to make. Garlic and Parmesan cheese give it most of its flavor along with a little tarragon. It closely resembles the Creamy Parmesan Dressing at Carrabba’s.

How To Make

This dressing is fabulously easy to make. No blender or Mason jar needed. Just whisk all the ingredients together in a bowl. So much fresher tasting than store-bought dressing.

Recipe Tip

If you wanted to, you could add about 1/2 teaspoon Anchovy Paste. It will give the dressing that extra something and depth of flavor, but it won’t taste fishy at all.

Not only is this dressing super easy to make, it is so full of flavor you only need a simple salad to serve it with. I love it with the crunch of romaine and a few grape tomatoes and red bell pepper for some color.

How To Store

Store in an airtight container in the refrigeraotr for 5 days.
