Ranch Pickle Ingredients
Well, if you haven’t figured it out already, this recipe is made with just two ingredients:
Dill Pickle Spears: Use your favorite store-bought brand or even a batch of your homemade pickles, if you prefer. You’re looking for a 24-ounce jar. It’s best to use spears since the seasoning will have an easier time flavoring the pickles.
Ranch Seasoning: A store-bought packet of seasoning is all you need, I used Hidden Valley Ranch. If you have a homemade ranch mix, feel free to use that instead!
How To Make Ranch Pickles
Ranch Pickles are a super easy recipe to make so no wonder it’s going viral! No kitchen skills or special tools are required to make this yummy recipe, simply:
Open the jar and packet of seasoning.
Add the seasoning to the jar.
Mix the seasoning in slightly with a fork.
Shake vigorously until mixed.
Refrigerate for at least 24 hours.
How Long Are They Good For?
Use the best buy date on the pickle jar to determine shelf life.
Do You Drain The Brine?
No, simply add the seasoning mix directly to the undrained jar and mix and shake.
What Do Ranch Pickles Taste Like?
The seasoning mix actually takes away some of the tartness of the dill pickles brine and smooths it out with an almost creamy ranch taste (even though there’s no cream, mayo, etc.). If you like pickles and ranch, then you’re going to love these!

Sea salt is sodium chloride. In this case, we're talking about calcium chloride! These little granules, which dilute quickly in water, are THE trick to crunchy pickles, as they prevent the enzymes from softening the pickle during lacto-fermentation.

The best way to keep your pickles crisp is by taking an extra moment to remove the blossom from the end of the cucumber. By adding this extra cut, you have a crisper pickle. Other ways to ensure a crisp pickle is by adding grape leaves to your jar. I tend to cut off both ends of the cucumber as I quickly process them.
Remove 1/16th” from the blossom end to eliminate enzymes which cause the pickles to become soft. One of the simplest methods of firming pickles is to use ice. Soak cucumbers or other vegetables in ice water or layer with crushed ice for 4 to 5 hours before pickling.
For a quick and easy way to help ensure crisp pickles: soak cucumbers in ice water for 4 to 5 hours before pickling. This is a safer method for making crisp pickles. Using lime, or calcium hydroxide, in solution for soaking cucumbers changes the amount of acid in the cucumber tissue.
Ranch dressing is essentially a buttermilk mayonnaise dressing spiffed up with herbs. It was popularized by Clorox, when they figured out a way to make their Hidden Valley brand shelf stable. (According to Slate, bottled ranch dressing is shelf stable to 150 days or about 5 months.
Mayo is a great sour cream substitute. It can be used as a 1:1 replacement in both baking and dips. You'll lose some of that tang that sour cream offers, but it still does a great job at adding moisture to baked goods. Plus, it's relatively the same texture as sour cream, which makes it a great sub in dips and sauce.
Is ranch like garlic mayonnaise? Not really, that's aioli. Ranch is more like buttermilk, green onion, garlic, black pepper mayonnaise. There's a lot more going on in ranch than just garlic and mayo.
