Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup Creole mustard
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
- 1 tablespoon sweet pickle relish
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce (like Crystal or Tabasco)
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or to taste)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped green onion
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Combine the mayonnaise, Creole mustard, ketchup, horseradish, relish, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper in a medium bowl.
- Whisk the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
- Stir in the fresh lemon juice, chopped green onion, and fresh parsley.
- Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning, adding more hot sauce or cayenne if you prefer more heat.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate the remoulade sauce for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to fully meld.
Notes
- This sauce tastes best when chilled for several hours. You can make it a day ahead of time.
- For a tangier flavor, substitute regular yellow mustard for half of the Creole mustard.
- This sauce pairs well with fried shrimp, crab cakes, oysters, or as a spread on sandwiches. Consider it a great alternative to standard mayonnaise when planning your meals.
