Recipe Variations
- MAKE RANCH OYSTER CRACKERS: oyster crackers are the perfect alternative to mini saltines. They make an addictive, bite-sized snack.
- MAKE THEM SPICIER: Don't be afraid of red pepper flakes. Adjust the amount to suit your taste, but remember they add just enough "kick" that makes this recipe special.
- GLUTEN FREE: This Ranch flavoring is very versatile. Add it to your favorite store-bought gluten free crackers for a great burst of flavor.
storage tips
- After allowing oil to absorb, store in an airtight container for up to one week.
