California Walnut Ranch Dressing is a creamy, plant-based dip that’s perfect for dunking, drizzling, or dolloping all summer long. Made with California walnuts, tangy lemon, and fresh herbs, it’s delicious with farmers market vegetables, tossed into salads, or spooned over twice-baked potatoes. I first tasted it at the Food Is Life, Food Is Health conference at the Culinary Institute of America this spring, and among an abundance of exceptional food, this simple dressing was one of the most memorable bites. Make a batch, set out a platter of seasonal vegetables, and watch it disappear.
