Tips
- Use high-quality vegan mayonnaise for the best creamy base - not all vegan mayo brands are created equal!
- Let the sauce chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to fully develop and blend together.
- For extra authenticity, use a whisk to ensure all ingredients are perfectly smooth and well-incorporated.
- If you prefer a little heat, add a dash of hot sauce or cayenne pepper for a spicy twist.
- Make a larger batch and store in an airtight container - this sauce is perfect for meal prepping and will keep for 5-7 days in the refrigerator.
- Experiment with the ratios slightly to customize the sauce to your personal taste preferences.
