I found out Hidden valleys secret

[l.e.m.o.n.a.d.e.]

At this point I feel like all of the restaurants have Jordan’s picture and his name hanging somewhere to remember NOT to hire him

You know what’s funny? Back in the 80’s, Hidden Valley’s Ranch tasted like the restaurant style ranch. It was standard. On the other hand, the “regular” ranch of today was usually found in $0.99 stores. The quality of food has dramatically dropped throughout the decades.

He’s right. As a ranch lover I must add. There is a difference between store ranch, restaurant ranch, and *salad* ranch.

[EnlightenedBeing]

I’m convinced that he knows what he’s talking about, considering the amount of restaurants he’s worked at 😂

no matter how bad my day is Jordan's smile fills me up with joy

[drsamthefrog]

OMG Jordan, you are the man to tell this to: I went to Wingstop yesterday and felt like being a little indulgent and asked for a large side of ranch. Tell me these people did not give me a *16oz container* of ranch?! I was expecting maybe 4 oz max. I'm a ranch-millionnaire.

An important step if you're making your own ranch (or other special sauce) is to let the mixture sit in the fridge for a couple hours or over night. It makes a HUGE difference when the ingredients steep together.

The face he has after he tries whatever amazing new concoction he has found is always the best

[vcdrny]

His reaction are priceless. Never change Jordan. You are a treasure.

I worked in a restaurant many many years ago before you could buy ranch art the grocery. One of my jobs was making ranch from scratch every morning. We didn't even use a seasoning packet, everything in it was fresh spices. I still make this to this day and ppl are blown away by the deliciousness. Super easy to make as are most salad dressings.

Love that you dunked Dino nuggets. 🤣 Best way to test ranch if there’s no pizza nearby, I guess!

[JimmieHammel]

I live how excited you get about finding new food loopholes. It makes me smile.

1/2 cup buttermilk, 1/2 cup mayo, 1/2 cup sour cream.

1/2 Tsp each: aalt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and dill.

*According to a commenter, I need to let EVERYONE know that DILL is a MUCH needed ingredient to make this RaNcH dressing . I make my own freshly dried dill so mine is quite strong - I only use about a tsp of dried dill (aka dill weed) but check your dill... If it isn't freshly bottled, you will need more.

Whisk thoroughly and refrigerate for a half hour. Trust me, THIS is the best Ranch dressing ever .


I moved to Australia 20 years ago and the only ranch that exists here is bottled stuff that tastes weird. So, ive spent years trying to come up with a good recipe. About 2 months ago, I came across this one and it's perfect.

TRUTH, I worked in restaurants when I was younger, and you can thank Hispanic people for delicious ranch in restaurants. The first restaurant I ever worked in had a mostly Hispanic kitchen, and they used the McCormick Mayo with lime to make the ranch. That's why ranch in the US is better than ranch in other countries. All hail McCormick Mayonesa!! 🥰

Jordan, up to this point I've loved watching your videos, you're so awesome but you don't understand, I've had this conversation with so many people and they've thought I'm CRAZY. "Ranch is just ranch, " NO IT IS NOT, THERE IS HOME RANCH AND RESTAURANT RANCH. I can't wait to try this. You're my savior.

[jadedmonk]

If ever I need a boost, Jordan, you're the recipe. Your delivery of the facts...come closer...is always deliciously hilarious.🤣

[Teenie_Tiny]

This man I revealing the sauce that literally stands in between home food and restaurant food. PROTECT HIM AT ALL COSTS.

[foogod]

I would bet that the big difference is the citric acid from the "Mayonnaise with Lime". Citric acid is often added as a to many commercially manufactured sauces/etc, such as those used in restaurants, but is not part of the "normal" ranch dressing recipe.

It would be interesting to try just adding a tiny amount of lime juice (or just straight citric acid, which you can buy) to some regular ranch dressing and see how close that actually makes it to the flavor of "restaurant ranch" (though the sour cream and mayo probably do also contribute to the flavor and texture to some degree)..

Once you've put mayonesa w/lime on your turkey sandwiches, there is no going back, no acceptable alternative. Some exception can be made for japanese style kewpie mayo in specific applications, but whenever I move to a new state my mission is to find which local grocer has my damn mayonesa. I fully believe it's the secret to this recipe.

I just keep rewinding this on your pull back face! 😂😂😂😂I can't stop laughing, your reaction made me order this mayo!😂
