Recipe by

This is a brilliant spread for beef and chicken, and it might even make a good dipping sauce; however, I have not tried it in that capacity, yet.

Easy/Peasy to assemble from common kitchen ingredients and helps to kick up the run-of-the-mill sandwich. And, of course, being homemade, you can always adjust the ingredients to suit your own tastes.

So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.

    PREP/PREPARE

    If you are using the ingredients as listed, and you place it in a non-reactive (stainless steel, glass, ceramic) container with a tight-fitting lid, it should easily last a month in the fridge.

    If, however, you use items like homemade mayonnaise, then it will only last 7 – 10 days.

    Remember homemade condiments do not contain preservatives… they taste better… are better for you… but they do not last as long.

    I made three batches:
    • One without any relish
    • One with sweet relish
    • One with dill relish

    And, to be honest, I could not tell you which one I liked the best… they all tasted great.

    If you are planning to put this sauce into a squeeze bottle, then do not add any relish…

    It will clog up the nozzle when you try to squeeze it out.

    I HATE it when that happens.

    The sriracha sauce dictates the heat in this spread; it is also integral in balancing the sweetness of the other ingredients.

    If you want to reduce it, that is fine; however, even if it only a teaspoon, add a little. It makes a big difference.
