Ingredients

  • 1 (3 oz.) can evaporated milk
  • 1/2 cup vinegar
  • 1 package dry onion soup mix
  • 1/3 cup catsup
  • 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce

Instructions

  1. Shake or stir all ingredients together.
  2. Chill before serving.

Tips & Substitutions

For a creamier dressing, consider substituting part of the evaporated milk with sour cream or Greek yogurt. If you want to adjust the tanginess, try using apple cider vinegar instead of regular vinegar. Incorporating fresh herbs like dill or parsley can elevate the flavor. This dressing works well on salads or as a dip for veggies, adding versatility to your meal prep.

Serving Suggestions

Randall House Dressing is perfect as a salad topper, especially on a crisp green salad or with a classic potato salad. It also makes a fantastic dip for fresh vegetables or chips. For a full meal, serve it alongside dishes like Mary Wilcox'S Cold Oven Pound Cake or grilled chicken for a delightful contrast.

Storage & Reheating

Store any leftover dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. If the dressing thickens after chilling, simply whisk in a little water or additional evaporated milk before serving. It's best enjoyed chilled, so remember to give it a good shake before using it again.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use fresh onions instead of dry onion soup mix?

While you can use fresh onions for a different flavor, it'll alter the texture and intensity of the dressing. If you choose to use fresh onions, finely chop them and consider adding a bit of salt to enhance their flavor. Start with about 1/4 cup of finely chopped onion.
