Buttermilk-Herb Dressing

This tangy dressing is excellent on everything from a plain green salad to steamed vegetables to pasta, chicken, and shrimp salads. It thickens nicely and the flavors develop on standing, so for best consistency make it at least one day before serving. We’ve used a small amount of olive oil for flavor and consistency, rather than omitting it entirely. The dressing will keep well for about three days refrigerated.
