Method
Base Sauce
- 1
Combine creamy bases
In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup mayonnaise and 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt until smooth and uniform in texture.
- 2
Add 1/4 cup ketchup and 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar. Whisk until fully incorporated and the mixture is homogenous.
Flavor Boosters
- 3
Stir in 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce, 1 teaspoon honey, and 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce. Mix thoroughly to distribute the sweet, savory, and tangy elements evenly through the base.
Seasonings & Aromatics
- 4
Add 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Whisk until spices are fully incorporated and no lumps remain.
Fresh Add-ins (optional)
- 5
If using fresh ingredients, fold in 1 tablespoon finely chopped chives and 1/2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice. Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt, pepper, or a splash of vinegar or lemon if needed.
- 6
For best flavor, cover and chill the sauce in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. The sauce will thicken slightly as it chills.
- 7
Transfer to an airtight container. Keeps refrigerated for up to 7 days.
