I like strong flavors that compliment the food. Plain ketchup, mayonnaise, and mustard just don't have oomph. They lack a certain balance. When I make a sandwich, dip a veggie (potatoes are a veggie even fried, yes they are), or sauce a cut of meat I want every bite to sing.
I have three "go to" condiments. GOOP is good on almost everything - sandwiches, veggies, hot and cold meats. We use it for taco sauce sometimes. Horseradish Sauce isn't just for beef. We like it on chicken, turkey, pork, and I caught my daughter making tuna salad with The Horseradish sauce. Honey Mustard Sauce is good on veggies, chicken, ham, and who remembers what else we've ate it with.
GOOP:
1//2 cup light Mayonnaise
1/2 cup ketchup (use the good stuff)
Choose from the following spices:
1 Tablespoon A-1 Steaksauce (original flavor) plus ground black pepper to taste
-OR-
1 teaspoon Sriracha
-OR-
1 Tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce, 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Horseradish Sauce :
1 cup light mayonnaise
1/4 cup +/- prepared horseradish (we like it strong, IF it's too much for you add more Mayo)
2 Tablespoons Honey
Honey Mustard Sauce:
1 cup Dijon mustard (any brand)
1/2 cup honey
2 Tablespoons +/- rice vinegar (white wine vinegar may be used but it tastes harsher)
Method:
In a suitable sized bowl, combine all ingredients for the desired sauce. Mix well. Store covered in refrigerator.
