About

A creamy, dairy-free ranch dressing featuring the smooth richness of Kikkoman Soy Milk, balanced with garlic, fresh herbs, and a touch of tangy lemon juice. This versatile vegan ranch is perfect for salads, vegetable platters, sandwiches, wraps, fries, and dipping sauces.

Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups avocado oil (or neutral oil)
  • 1 cup Kikkoman® Soy Milk
  • 3-4 Tbsp fresh lemon juice (or 1-2 Tbsp Cider Vinegar)
  • 1 Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (or 1 tsp dried parsley)
  • 1Tbsp fresh dill, chopped (or 1 tsp dried dill)
  • 1 Tbsp onion powder
  • 2 tsp nutritional yeast
  • ½ tsp paprika (optional)
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 2–3 tsp salt, to taste

Directions

  1. Prepare ingredients.
    Peel and crush garlic cloves. Finely chop parsley and dill if using fresh herbs.
  2. Add remaining ingredients.
    With the blender running on medium-high speed, blend Kikkoman Soy Milk and lemon juice. Add garlic, parsley, dill, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Blend until smooth and evenly incorporated.
  3. Emulsify the ranch.
    Slowly drizzle in the avocado oil while blending continuously. Continue blending until thick, creamy, and fully emulsified.
  4. Adjust seasoning.
    Taste and adjust salt as needed. For a thinner dressing consistency, blend in 1–2 tablespoons of soy milk or additional lemon juice until desired texture is reached.
  5. Use or Store.
    Transfer to a clean container and refrigerate before serving. Ideal for salads, vegetable platters, sandwiches, wraps, fries, and dipping sauces.
