½ cup creme fraiche

2 tbsp Ranch Seasoning (large container from Sam's Club)

Make your own Creme Fraiche, you'll never use sour cream again.

Sanitized glass sealable container
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon buttermilk
Add cream to container, gently stir in buttermilk, loosely close lid, cover with a towel in a warm part of your kitchen for 18
hours.
Open and stir gently. If it's firmed up, seal and refrigerate 2-4 hours before using.
1 1/2 tablespoons of buttermilk will yield a much thicker end product.

Dressing

Like your recipe depended on it, whisk buttermilk through mustard until well combined, let stand 10 minutes and whisk again.

Place in sealable container and chill at least 2 hours.

Add bacon just before serving or prepping salad. OR serve on the side.
