Black pepper and buttermilk make a great dip, drizzle, or dressing—think of it as ranch dressing for the times when you don’t have fresh herbs.
Thanks to Food & Wine magazine (November 2017) for the idea. They drizzled it over an escarole salad with hazelnuts, pomegranate seeds and roasted squash—I can hardly wait to try it! For tonight though, it’s only the dressing for me. I’ll set it out with long sticks of jicama and carrot and if we have time between trick-or-treat doorbell rings, maybe we’ll roast some squash rings and dunk them too.
