My nana’s special sauce was always a crowd favorite at family gatherings, holiday dinners, and cookouts. It’s a recipe passed down through generations, and each time I prepare it, I can almost hear her telling me all her little tips and tricks to make it just right. This sauce is a perfect blend of savory and tangy, and it adds a delicious depth of flavor to almost any dish.
Ingredients:
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
1 tablespoon honey (optional for a touch of sweetness)
Directions:
In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice. Whisk together until smooth.
Add the garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well to ensure all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
Taste the sauce, and if you prefer a bit of sweetness, add the honey and mix again. You can adjust the seasoning as needed to suit your preference.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together and enhances the taste.
