In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add 100 g buttermilk powder, 40 g garlic powder, 20 g onion powder, 12 g sea salt, 10 g umami seasoning, 2 tsp dried dill, and 2 tsp dried parsley. Whisk together until fully combined.
Transfer seasoning to two 8-ounce mason jars fitted with spice shaker lids. Keep jars of seasoning (and any leftover buttermilk powder) in the fridge. Mixture will keep as long as the powdered buttermilk, which is 6-12 months after the container is opened.
To turn it into salad dressing: mix 2 tbsp ranch seasoning, 1/2 cup mayo (or Greek yogurt), and 1/8 cup milk. If it's too thick for your preference, add milk in 1 tbsp increments until it's the consistency you prefer.To turn it into a dip: mix 3 tbsp ranch seasoning and 2 cups sour cream (or Greek yogurt).
Notes
Umami seasoning: Do not omit the umami seasoning if you want your seasoning to truly mimic the store-bought versions. Publix and Trader Joe's sell a good umami seasoning blend. If you can't find it, substitute dried mushroom powder.
Quantity: This recipe makes enough ranch seasoning to fill two 8-ounce mason jars about three-quarters of the way full. It's a tad less than the quantity in the large, 8-ounce Hidden Valley jar shown in the photos in this post. The equivalent to one Ranch seasoning packet is 30g of this seasoning mix.
