Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons (tbsp) Creole mustard (or Dijon mustard)

Herbs and Seasonings:

  • 2 tablespoons (tbsp) chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon (tsp) smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon (tsp) cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon (tsp) salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon (tsp) black pepper

Additional Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon (tbsp) ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon (tbsp) prepared horseradish
  • 1 teaspoon (tsp) hot sauce (e.g., Tabasco)
  • 1 tablespoon (tbsp) fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon (tbsp) capers, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon (tbsp) dill pickles, finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

  1. In a spacious mixing vessel, amalgamate mayonnaise, Creole mustard, ketchup, horseradish, hot sauce, and freshly squeezed lemon juice, whisking until a smooth, uniform consistency emerges.
  2. Gently fold in finely chopped parsley, briny capers, diced pickles, and minced garlic, ensuring even distribution throughout the creamy base.
  3. Elevate the flavor profile by incorporating smoky paprika, fiery cayenne, pristine sea salt, and cracked black pepper, stirring meticulously to integrate each nuanced spice.
  4. Transfer the vibrant condiment to a sealed container and allow it to rest in the refrigerator, permitting the ingredients to harmonize and intensify their complex flavor notes for a minimum of 60 minutes.
  5. When ready to serve, present this zesty New Orleans-style sauce as an accompaniment to crispy seafood, classic po’boys, golden french fries, or as a tantalizing dressing for crisp salad greens.

Notes

  • Adjust the heat by carefully controlling the amount of hot sauce and cayenne pepper to match personal spice tolerance.
  • Swap mayonnaise with Greek yogurt or vegan mayo for a lighter, dietary-friendly alternative that maintains creamy texture.
  • Chop capers and pickles extra fine to distribute flavors evenly and prevent large chunky bits in the sauce.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days, allowing flavors to continue developing and intensifying in the refrigerator.
