A truly stellar breading should impart flavor, which is why seasoning bread crumbs, panko, beer batter, crushed crackers, and the like is essential. Of the many herbs and spices that are up to the task, nothing heightens complexity like a sprinkle of ranch seasoning.
Dried ranch seasoning can be a gustatory game-changer when incorporated into otherwise bland and boring breading. It elevates flavors by infusing nuances of grassy herbiness and notes of sour tang, adding umami and visual appeal due to its medley of herbs.
Simply stir a packet of store-bought dried ranch dressing into a cup of your base breading. Alternatively, concoct your own ranch powder using a few pantry staples like buttermilk powder, salt, onion and garlic powder, and dried herbs.
If you happen to be working with bread crumbs, toasting them before combining with powdered ranch is also a great way to add depth and enhance their flavor.
