This Cajun inspired dipping sauce is the perfect accompaniment to so many dishes. Try it with French fries, hush puppies and fried seafood, or use it as a spread for burgers and sandwiches. It’s so versatile!
I’m a huge fan of dipping sauces of all kinds–I never order French fries without a side of Ranch–and this Homemade Remoulade Sauce has got to be one of my all-time favorites!
If you search the Internet for recipes for remoulade sauce, you’ll get about a million different results. So if you want to add or subtract something to this recipe, go right ahead!
This is the version of remoulade sauce I’ve settled on after making about 20 different versions. I like a smooth sauce, but some people prefer a chunky version, with bits of pickle or celery for crunch.
This is the kind of recipe where I urge you to take what you will, but don’t be afraid to adapt it and make it your own.
That’s especially true for the level of heat. I usually make mine pretty mild, but if you want to add more spice or hot sauce, go for it!
This sauce is so good with so many things! We use it as a dipping sauce for just about anything fried, but it’s especially delicious with fried shrimp and fried pickles.
It’s also a great sandwich and burger spread, and remoulade sauce is a must if you’re making a traditional shrimp po-boy sandwich!
If you prefer, you can definitely use light mayonnaise in this recipe. I always use Tony Chachere’s Original Creole Seasoning in my remoulade sauce, but any brand will do. You can even make your own.
For the best flavor, I like to mix this up at least an hour before serving. Further ahead is even better. It should keep in the refrigerator for about a week.
