Ranch Crust Dust
Inspired by the mail-order packets of herbs and spices that Hidden Valley Ranch-founder Steve Henson started selling in 1954, we made our own homemade ranch crust dust. Our secret ingredient is buttermilk powder — a dehydrated version of the cultured dairy product — which gives our spice blend that particular beloved tang. You can find it on Amazon or at your local supermarket. Just brush some melted butter on your crust, sprinkle on a healthy dose of ranch powder post-bake, and you may find yourself wanting to eat crust-first.
