Ingredients

Scale

Remoulade Sauce

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons Creole mustard
  • 1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons hot sauce (like Tabasco)
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped green onions
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped celery
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley
  • Salt and black pepper to taste


Instructions

  1. Combine wet ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Creole mustard, horseradish, lemon juice, white vinegar, hot sauce, and Worcestershire sauce until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
  2. Add spices: Incorporate the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper into the wet mixture, stirring well to evenly distribute the spices throughout the sauce.
  3. Mix in fresh herbs: Fold in the finely chopped green onions, celery, and parsley to add freshness and texture to the remoulade.
  4. Season to taste: Add salt and black pepper according to your preference, adjusting to balance the flavors perfectly.
  5. Chill: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the remoulade for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.
  6. Serve: Once chilled, serve the remoulade as a dipping sauce or condiment alongside fried seafood, sandwiches, or as a zesty salad dressing.

Notes

  • For a spicier version, increase the amount of cayenne pepper or hot sauce.
  • This remoulade is an excellent accompaniment to fried seafood, po’boys, and works wonderfully as a tangy salad dressing.
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
