Basil Buttermilk Salad Dressing

Made with fresh basil from my garden and fresh garlic, this was amazing over a simple green salad with homegrown summer tomatoes from the farmers market. I would make this as needed, unlike most salad dressings, I think this one was best the same day. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

I have just started to grow a small pot of basil and I made this to use with a fresh spinach salad. It was delightful, thanks for posting

The flavor is excellent, even though I couldn't wait for it to chill overnight, and even though I used milk & lemon instead of buttermilk...it was a little thin though(probably because I didn't let it set) so next time, if I plan on using it right away, I might omit a little milk and add either yoghurt or sour cream. Thanks so much for the great dressing, its just what I needed for my four basil plant harvest overload! One can only eat SO much pesto!

This was an awesome starting point, I used much more basil than called for and added a splash of white wine vinegar. It is a little thin, but didnt want to thicken it up with more mayo. It is very similar to a favorite local restaurants house dressing I have been trying to replicate for a long time. I am going to try this on a pasta salad next, I think it would be wonderful.

A terrific blend of flavors in a very nice summery salad dressing ~ Thanks for sharing the recipe!
