Ingredients
4 teaspoons garlic
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups mayonnaise
2/3 cups buttermilk
4 tablespoons minced flat-leaf parsley
4 minced scallions
2 teaspoons white wine or champagne vinegar
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
Mash the garlic and salt to a paste with the side of a chefs knife. In a medium bowl, whisk together the garlic, mayonnaise, buttermilk, parsley, scallion, vinegar, and pepper to taste.
If the sauce is very thick, thin the dressing with a couple more tablespoons of the buttermilk. Use immediately or refrigerate, covered, for up to 5 days.
