Homemade Ranch Dressing

I think we can all agree that we LOVE ranch dressing!!!  And ranch isn't real ranch unless it's made from the packet......none of that bottled crap! :-)  Well I came upon this beauty of a recipe and was utterly thrilled.  I remember Grandma Nell making ranch from scratch like this and it was absolutely heavenly.  I can't wait to make it and use it on the next recipe I am going to post (Summer Tortellini Salad).

6 1/2 cups regular mayonnaise
1 quart buttermilk
3 rounded Tbsp onion salt
1 rounded Tbsp accent
3 rounded Tbsp garlic salt
3 rounded Tbsp white pepper
3 rounded Tbsp flaked parsley

Mix by hand and then put it in a bottle. Over time it will separate and water will settle to the bottom; do not remix.

The girl said this recipe makes a TON.  She suggests cutting the recipe in half.
