Preparing Ranch Dressing

  • Empty one pouch (64 ounces) of mayonnaise into a plastic Cambro mixing container (6 -8 quart)
  • Measure 64 ounces of buttermilk into a measuring cup
  • Pour the buttermilk over the mayonnaise in the plastic Cambro mixing container (6-8 quart)
  • Add one package of ranch dressing mix to the mayonnaise and buttermilk
  • Using a wire whisk, mix all ingredients together until thoroughly blended
  • Use a 13 ½-inch rubber spatula to scrape the sides and bottom of the container
  • Continue mixing with the wire whisk, until all ingredients are thoroughly blended
  • Pour the contents into a portioning pitcher

Cupping Sauces

  • The discard date is 4 days from the prepared date (Example: if the dipping sauce was prepared on 7 -7, the discard date would be 7-10)
  • EXAMPLE:  Day prepared + 3 additional days = Discard Date
  • Prepared on 7th + 8th, 9th, 10th = Discard on the 10th (EOD)
  • Fill the soufflé cups to ¼” from the top of the cup (1 ½ ounces)
  • Cover each cup with a soufflé cup lid and store in a white lug
  • Place a dissolvable label on the outside of the white lug
  • Write the discard date and time on the dissolvable label
  • Place the white lug in the walk-in cooler
  • ENSURE ALL INDIVIDUAL CUPS IN A LUG OR ON A TRAY HAVE THE SAME EXPIRATION DATE
  • ROTATE LUG OR TRAY TO USE THE CUPS WITH THE CLOSEST EXPIRATION DATE FIRST
  • IT IS CRITICAL TO NEVER PUT CUPS WITH DIFFERENT EXPIRATION DATES IN A LUG OR ON THE SAME TRAY
  • The portioned cups of sauce may be held for up to 4 days at a temperature of 34°F - 41°F
  • Discard any individual servings of sauce remaining at the end of day on the expiration date
