Me, my wings, and any salad dressing containing buttermilk are friends. For me, it makes for the perfect basis for a good dipping sauce. This down home buttermilk wing dipping sauce isn’t complicated. There’s really not much in it. It lets that wonderful buttermilk flavor come through, without burying it. It isn’t going to fight with the flavor of your wings so much that you just taste the dipping sauce. It’ll cool you down if you are enjoying some super-hot wings. And even if you’re not.

Dip This. Dip That.
This dressing is thinner, but not crazy thin. So it’s also great for dipping veggies. Sure, you could put it on a salad too, but we’re here for wings, so get to dipping! The recipe makes a pretty big batch. Plenty for a crowd. Plenty for those veggies. And plenty for your wings!
This down home buttermilk wing dipping sauce needs some quality time in the fridge before you serve it. Just cover it and leave it alone for six hours at least. Overnight is better. It’ll thicken up slightly (but not much). And the flavor will get even better.
I like to serve my dipping sauce in condiment cups. They’re perfect for wings. And they help me control my un-natural dipping sauce addiction. So in theory, I only use what I should.

Thicker-er
If you want a thicker sauce, just add a bit of xanthan gum. And I do mean a little bit. Like 1/4 a teaspoon. Stir it in and let it do its magic. A little does go a long way though. I like to keep xantham gum on hand for any time I need to thicken up any sauce, not just this one. Unlike cornstarch or similar, you don’t have to add it to a warm liquid for it to do its job.
Also try my creamy Ranch dressing for dipping.
