Perfect for pairing with a succulent prime rib or as a bold dressing, this sauce packs a punch and is a cinch to whip up. Follow these simple steps to create a condiment that will impress at any dinner table. Let's get cooking!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup sour cream (or crème fraîche)
- 1 tablespoon white Worcestershire sauce (also known as marinade for chicken)
- A few dashes of hot sauce (to taste)
- 1/4 cup prepared horseradish (or fresh, if treated)
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 clove of garlic, finely chopped (optional)
- A handful of fresh parsley, chopped
- Juice of half a lemon
- Salt (to taste)
Instructions:
1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of mayonnaise with 1 cup of sour cream. Stir until well blended.
2. Add 1 tablespoon of white Worcestershire sauce, being cautious to not overdo it, as it can be quite salty and you don't want to overpower the other flavors.
3. Incorporate a few dashes of your favorite hot sauce according to your heat preference. Remember, this is optional and can be omitted if you're not a fan of spice.
4. Mix in 1/4 cup of prepared horseradish. If you're using fresh horseradish, make sure to treat it first by curing and adding vinegar before incorporating it into the sauce.
5. Stir in 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard and, if desired, a finely chopped clove of garlic.
6. Add the chopped fresh parsley for a beautiful pop of color and freshness to the sauce.
7. Squeeze in the juice of half a lemon, ensuring that the sauce achieves a balanced acidity to cut through the fat.
8. Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until the sauce is uniform in consistency.
9. Before finalizing the sauce, taste it and adjust the seasoning as needed. If the sauce tastes too salty from the Worcestershire, hold back on any additional salt.
10. The sauce is best enjoyed after chilling for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator, which allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
