Ivory says
Thank you! We just cant get enough of this. I make it every other night lol It's so good and so easy to make. Glad you enjoyed!

AhMayZing!
I love spicy and garlic so this was a no brainer for me. Easy to make, substituted spicy brown mustard for Dijon and WOW! Garlic is on the forefront and spicy brings up the rear meeting in the middle making a wonderful collision in your mouth. Made this to dip fresh veggies in and couldn’t keep my composure because it’s so damn delicious!
I will definitely make this a staple in my house when I make anything I think can be dipped!
Ivory says
Yep! We love it with roasted broccoli!
Julia says
I made this as a potato dip, and my husband used it to dip his steak and broccoli too!! You were right about the flavor after refrigeration. Leftovers were dynamite!
Ivory says
Yum! So glad you enjoyed! Thanks so much for reviewing 🙂
Rachel says
This sauce was a hit! I added some kashmiri chili powder and some smoked paprika. We spread it on the hamburger buns and toasted them. The smokiness from the grill added even more flavor. Also bacon and sharp cheddar on top. So good!

I prepped this today in anticipation of using it on BLTs tomorrow. However, I didn't even get it to the fridge before I slathered it on some roasted corn on the cob. Hubby had to get in on the action and added some Tajin on top. Oh my word. If it's THAT good without even melding yet, I can't imaging how much better it will be tomorrow. I don't think we can ever go back to plain mayo. 😁

Loved it on a steak sandwich. I don't have a 1/3 teaspoon so I used 1/4 teaspoon and since my family doesn't enjoy spicy foods, I used a sprinkle of cayenne pepper and it was still very tasty. Thank you.
