Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons Creole mustard
  • 1 tablespoon horseradish, prepared
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce (adjust to your spice preference)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped green onion (scallion)
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Gather all your ingredients. You need a medium bowl for mixing.
  2. Place the mayonnaise, Creole mustard, horseradish, Worcestershire sauce, Cajun seasoning, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and hot sauce into the bowl.
  3. Add the fresh lemon juice, chopped green onion, and fresh parsley to the bowl.
  4. Use a whisk or a spoon to mix all the ingredients together until the sauce is completely smooth and uniform in color.
  5. Taste the sauce. Add more hot sauce or salt if you prefer a stronger flavor.
  6. Cover the bowl and refrigerate the remoulade sauce for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to blend.
  7. Serve this zesty sauce with fried shrimp, crab cakes, oysters, or on your favorite Po’ Boy sandwiches.

Notes

  • For the most authentic Louisiana remoulade flavor, use Creole mustard instead of standard yellow mustard.
  • You can prepare this creamy condiment up to three days ahead of time; the flavor deepens overnight.
  • If you do not have Cajun seasoning, you can substitute with a mix of cayenne pepper, dried thyme, and dried oregano.
