Ingredients

  • 200 g mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp capers, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp hot sauce (to taste)
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Black pepper (to taste)

Steps

  1. 1. In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, capers, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, and hot sauce. Whisk until smooth and fully incorporated to create a stable base for the emulsion, about 2 minutes.

  2. 2. Add the chopped parsley, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Mix thoroughly for 1-2 minutes to ensure even distribution of flavors.

  3. 3. Taste the remoulade and adjust seasoning if necessary. If the sauce seems too thick, you can add a little water or more lemon juice, about 1 teaspoon at a time, to achieve your desired consistency.

  4. 4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and intensify.

Why this works

Remoulade is an emulsion, meaning it combines fats and liquids to create a creamy texture that enhances various dishes. The mayonnaise serves as the primary fat, while the mustard adds acidity and a slight tang, balancing the richness. Capers and Worcestershire sauce introduce umami depth, enriching the overall flavor profile. If the remoulade breaks and separates, you can rescue it by whisking in a teaspoon of warm water slowly to help re-emulsify the mixture. Additionally, adjusting the seasoning with salt and lemon juice can elevate the taste, ensuring it complements the dish it accompanies. The resting time in the refrigerator, ideally 30 minutes but up to 2 hours, allows the flavors to develop fully, making it a versatile condiment that pairs beautifully with seafood, fried foods, or even as a sandwich spread. The balance of acidity and creaminess is vital for a well-rounded remoulade, and knowing how to adjust its consistency and flavor can make all the difference. The precise measurements and resting time ensure a consistently exceptional result.
