Ingredients

Scale

Alabama White Sauce Ingredients

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for a spicy kick)


Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and sugar until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  2. Add Spices: Incorporate salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper if using. Stir thoroughly to ensure all spices are evenly distributed throughout the sauce.
  3. Chill and Serve: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the sauce for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to develop and meld together. Serve chilled as a dipping sauce or drizzle over grilled chicken, pork, or vegetables for a delicious tangy finish.
