Equipment

  • Bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 3 tablespoons tomato ketchup
  • 1/2 cup creamy mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons sweet relish
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons white vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard adds tang and depth
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika adds subtle smokiness

Instructions
 

Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients

  • Before you begin, make sure all your ingredients are ready and within reach. This will make the process smooth and quick.

Step 2: Combine the Base Ingredients

  • In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise and ketchup. Use a whisk to blend them together smoothly. This is the foundation of the sauce.

Step 3: Add Sweetness and Tang

  • Now, introduce the sweet relish, granulated sugar, and white vinegar into the mixture. Stir until everything is combined. The sweet relish gives a crunch that enhances the flavor profile.

Step 4: Spice It Up

  • It’s time to add the Dijon mustard and smoked paprika. Whisk again to incorporate everything thoroughly. This step introduces so much more flavor beyond just the standard sauce.

Step 5: Taste and Adjust

  • Dip a spoon into the mixture and taste it. This is your chance to adjust. If it needs more sweetness or tang, feel free to add more relish or vinegar.

Step 6: Chill Before Serving

  • For the best results, let the sauce chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This allows all the flavors to meld together beautifully.

Notes

  • Use Quality Ingredients: The flavor of your spread is only as good as the ingredients you use.
  • Give it Time: Allow the flavors to develop by chilling. Patience pays off.
  • Mix Well: Whisk thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well-blended.
  • Taste Often: Adjust to your preferences—don’t shy away from personalizing this sauce.
  • Experiment: Try adding garlic powder or chopped onions for added flavor dimensions.
