Poultry Essentials: Awesome Dipping Sauce image

One of the advantages of being a closet insomniac is that you get to spend all night in the kitchen playing mad scientist. I call this a poultry dipping sauce; however, you could probably use it with fish. I do not think it would work with beef or pork. In addition, it is assembled with ingredients that you likely have available in your cupboards, and fridge. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.

Number Of Ingredients 14

PLAN/PURCHASE
MAIN INGREDIENTS
1 cup(s) mayonnaise, plain variety, i prefer duke's
1 - 2 tablespoon(s) water, filtered, if you have it
1 tablespoon(s) ketchup
1 tablespoon(s) fresh clover honey
1 tablespoon(s) rice vinegar, unseasoned
1 teaspoon(s) sweet paprika
1/8 teaspoon(s) garlic powder, or 1 clove of baked garlic
1 - 2 pinch(es) cayenne pepper, or to taste
ADDITIONAL ITEMS
salt, kosher variety, to taste
white pepper, freshly ground, to taste
frank's hot sauce, to taste

Steps:

  • PREP/PREPARE
  • Sweet versus Smoked Paprika There are many varieties of paprika, but the one that I felt did not work with this dipping sauce was smoked. Do not use smoked paprika. I found that sweet worked the best.
  • Store Bought versus Homemade Two of the ingredients in this recipe are easy to find at the grocer, and you probably have them in your fridge or pantries: Mayonnaise and ketchup. If you have some time on your hands, you might want to try homemade. They taste better and do not have all those nasty preservatives in them. Here are two recipes that I use to make those condiments: Ketchup https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/other-sauce-spread/versatile-homemade-ketchup.html?r=1 Mayonnaise https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/spread/mayonnaise-essentials-faux-duke-s-version.html?r=6 If you are using store-bought ingredients (mayonnaise, ketchup), then this recipe will last 2 - 3 weeks tightly covered in the fridge. If you are using homemade condiments (no preservatives), then it will last about a week.
  • Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
  • Place all of the Main Ingredients into a mixing bowl.
  • Whisk together until smooth.
  • Add salt, white pepper, and hot sauce, to taste.
  • Cover and let rest overnight in the fridge before using.
  • PLATE/PRESENT
  • I made some chicken tenders and used this sauce... Awesome. Enjoy.
  • Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
