CREAMY GREEK SALAD DRESSING

Steps:

• In a blender or food processor, whirl all the ingredients except the buttermilk for one minute.
• With the blender running, slowly pour in the buttermilk and blend until thick and creamy (turn off the blender as soon as the dressing thickens or it may curdle).
• Chill at least 1 hour so the flavours meld.
• Refrigerate, tightly covered.
• This makes nearly 2 cups of dressing and stays fresh for 3-4 days.
• If the dressing separates, just give it a whizz in the blender again.
