Equipment

Ingredients
 
 

  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ⅓ cup sour cream
  • 3 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 2-3 tablespoons milk (see note)

Instructions
 

  • Combine all ingredients except milk in a mason jar and shake well to combine.
  • Add milk 1 tablespoon at a time, stopping when the dressing reaches your desired consistency.
  • Adjust salt and pepper to taste, if desired.

Notes

Milk Measurement: The milk measurement is variable because you will just add enough to make it the consistency you like. 
Flavor Variations: Experiment with fresh herbs like dill, chives, or parsley for extra flavor and color. Use half the amount if using dried herbs, and add a squeeze of lemon juice to brighten the taste.
Mixing Method: Use a mason jar for easy mixing and storage, or whisk in a bowl if preferred. Either way, ensure all ingredients are fully incorporated before adding milk.
Storage: Store the dressing in a mason jar or airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week for best quality and food safety.
