Share:
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups mayonnaise
- 1/3 cup yellow mustard
- ¼ cup Dijon mustard
- ¼ cup honey
- 2 teaspoons white distilled vinegar
- coarse salt and cayenne pepper to taste
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients to a bowl.
- Whisk together all the ingredients and, if desired, season with salt and cayenne pepper.
Notes
- The most important thing to remember when making this honey mustard dipping sauce is to use the highest-quality ingredients available to you. All of the flavors from the handful of ingredients are on display here, so there’s nowhere to hide.
- Adjust the consistency: As-is, this recipe yields a spoonable honey mustard sauce that works perfectly as a dipping sauce or a spread for sandwiches or burgers. If you plan on using it as a salad dressing, whisk in a splash of water or a little extra vinegar until it’s pourable and silky.
- Taste and tweak: I always recommend tasting the sauce before adding salt, as some mayo and mustard brands are already fairly salty on their own. If it tastes too sweet, add more vinegar or mustard to balance the flavor. If it’s too sharp, an extra drizzle of honey can help mellow it out.
- Whisk it well: Whisking the honey mustard ingredients until you’re left with a completely smooth and emulsified sauce is key for blending the flavors and achieving a luxurious consistency. If you’re making a larger batch, you can combine the ingredients in a small blender or food processor.
- Adjust the taste with flavor boosters: Once you’ve nailed the base of the sauce, feel free to experiment with the flavors using your preferred add-ins. Try adding fresh herbs like dill, parsley, or tarragon; 1 to 2 teaspoons of horseradish, hot sauce, or cayenne for heat; or a pinch of smoked paprika or smoked salt for a smoky note.
- Make-Ahead: I recommend making the sauce at least 30 minutes before serving to give the flavors time to meld together. Chill it in the fridge until you’re ready to eat.
- How to Store: Store the leftover honey mustard sauce in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. Just give it a good stir before using it.
