Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • ⅓ cup Creole mustard (or spicy brown mustard)
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • hot sauce (to taste)

Method
 

  1. Mix all ingredients well in a medium bowl until thoroughly combined and smooth.
  2. Taste and adjust hot sauce to your preference, adding more for extra heat if desired.
  3. Serve immediately with your favorite dishes or transfer to an airtight container.
  4. Store in the refrigerator for up to a week for best flavor.

Notes

– For optimal flavor, allow the remoulade to chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving; this allows the flavors to meld beautifully. I’ve found that letting it rest overnight really deepens the complexity.
– If you prefer a milder sauce, start with less cayenne pepper and hot sauce, then gradually add more to reach your desired level of heat. Taste as you go!
– Store any leftover Cajun remoulade in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
