Description

A flavorful and creamy Blooming Onion Sauce perfect for dipping crispy onion petals, combining mayonnaise with a blend of spices including horseradish, smoked paprika, and garlic for a tangy, smoky kick.


Ingredients

Scale

Blooming Onion Sauce Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon prepared horseradish sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper


Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, ketchup, horseradish sauce, granulated garlic, smoked paprika, ground cumin, dried oregano, kosher salt, and black pepper until the mixture is smooth and all ingredients are fully incorporated.
  2. Chill the Sauce: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the sauce for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and develop before serving.

Notes

  • For best flavor, let the sauce chill longer than 30 minutes if possible.
  • This sauce pairs perfectly with crispy fried onion petals, but can also be used as a dip for vegetables or chips.
  • If you prefer a spicier sauce, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or hot sauce.
  • Adjust salt and pepper to taste before serving.
