Tips

  • Rule number one: you've got to start by making your own mayo; store-bought won't cut it.
  • Rule number two: you're probably gonna want to use MSG. It's the secret ingredient your ranch has been missing.
  • Rule number three: if someone says they prefer blue cheese, just smile, nod your head and let them embarrass themselves in peace.
  • Adjust salt to taste, then cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to let the flavors come together.
