Many people don't know remoulade sauce by its name. Remoulade sauce is the delicious, flavorful, pinkish sauce that you often get in restaurants when you order crabcakes. It is absolutely divine!

The official definition of remoulade is a pungent sauce or dressing resembling mayonnaise and usually including savory herbs and condiments.

It's similar to its tartar sauce cousin but has a few more ingredients like hot sauce, horseradish, and garlic that give it some extra zip. It's a fun alternative to cocktail sauce if you like to mix things up every now and then.

It's bright, bold flavors will elevate almost any seafood dish. I love it with these Ritz Crab Cakes and even as a simple shrimp dip. I hope you love it as much as I do!

HOW TO MAKE REMOULADE SAUCE

While remoulade sauce has a fancy name, it's actually quite easy to make! Remoulade sauce is made by mixing together mayonnaise, mustard, pickle relish, lemon juice, Cajun seasoning, hot sauce, horseradish, and garlic. It is chilled in the refrigerator and served cold. See below for detailed recipe instructions.

WHAT IS REMOULADE SAUCE?

Remoulade sauce is a chilled mayonnaise-based condiment that originated in France. There are many different variations of remoulade sauce, including traditional French, Louisiana style, and a Danish style. This recipe is my version of remoulade, inspired by all three. It's bright, zippy, and perfect served with seafood.

CAN YOU FREEZE REMOULADE SAUCE?

It's best not to freeze mayonnaise-based sauces. The good news is that remoulade sauce will last for up to two weeks in your fridge, giving you plenty of time to eat it with several meals.

WHAT TO SERVE REMOULADE SAUCE WITH

Remoulade sauce is the best topping for crab cakes, but that's not all it's good with! Try remoulade sauce with slathered on fish, with fried shrimp as a dip, spread on a po'boy, or as a french fry dipper. It is super versatile and can be served with so many different things!
