What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Food Plating: Sriracha Mayo Dipping Sauce! Please don’t accuse me of serving under-seasoned food. Years ago I saw people dipping their French Fries in a bowl of mayonnaise and thought it very strange. And then I was informed the Europeans do it all the time. They say the full earthy flavor of the potatoes are enhanced by the rich, tangy taste of mayonnaise rather than the stronger sweet taste of ketchup. Fast forward to now, and I can justify a mayonnaise-based chili sauce, known as sriracha mayo, as a popular condiment. It’s thicker consistency latches onto a chip and won’t drop off on its way to your mouth. Adding the kick of spice is pure pleasure. Wouldn’t you agree?
