It’s easy to make homemade Russian Dressing with ingredients you probably have on hand in your pantry. So much better than the bottled version!
If you’ve followed us for a while here at A Family Feast, then you know that we are big proponents of cooking from scratch. This holds particularly true when it comes to salad dressings – like today’s homemade Russian Dressing!
Why buy the bottled stuff when you can make a delicious homemade version that tastes so much better? In fact – Russian Dressing is made from fairly common ingredients you might already have in your kitchen!
It’s a mix of mayonnaise, red onion, sweet pepper relish, ketchup, dill pickles, chives and prepared horseradish. We also like to give our homemade Russian Dressing a little extra ‘oomph’ 🙂 with the addition of some hot Hungarian paprika
– but regular paprika can also be used if you prefer.
And – check out our delicious Kielbasa Reuben sandwich recipe that is made using this homemade Russian Dressing!

Thanks Debbie!
I can’t locate pepper relish. What do you suggest as a substitute? Thank you.
Any standard green relish (which is made with peppers) works for this recipe.
Amazon has the sweet pepper relish.
I already ordered it.
Thanks Georgianne!
