Guest guest Posted April 4, 2001 Report Share Posted April 4, 2001 Sue, This recipe was a god-send to my son who was also addicted to Ranch Dressing. It looks like it and tasted real good. I don't always add the basil and oregona. Also, the vitamin C crystals are to replace vinegar which we do because we have a yeast problem. They are available at Health Food Stores but if you don't need it , use vinegar. ½ cup hulled sunflower seeds 1 T arrowroot starch or potato starch ½ t. sea salt 1 t. unbuffered, corn-free vitamin C crystals 1 cup water ½ t. garlic powder 1. Blend nuts or seeds in blender on highest speed for 1-2 minutes until they become a fine powder. Stop at least once to scrape sides and bottom of blender jar. Be careful not to create a “butter.” If needed to make it smoother, add flour or starch and blend on highest speed 1 minute longer. 2. Add remaining ingredients. Blend on highest speed for a minute longer, stopping once or twice to scrape sides and bottom of blender jar. 3. Pour mixture into small saucepan. Add desired seasoning. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with whisk until mixture is thick yet smooth. 4. Chill. If too thick, add a tablespoon more water. Taste and add more seasoning if desired. (Add 1 t. basil, and 2 t. leaf oregano to make Creamy Italian. *If you back of to only ¼ t. garlic, it makes a nice mayonnaise. For those doing rotation diet or have allergies to sunflower seeds, this recipe can be made using almonds, filberts, macadamia nuts, or unsalted cashews. You can also rotate the flour or starch.
