3. Dipping Sauces Based On Mayonnaise, Just As Delicious For Raclette

Mayonnaise is a cold sauce and serves as the base sauce for many preparations.

I already show the preparation of the mayonnaise in another article.

The best way to prepare mayonnaise is with a mixer .

You can stay on this page because the following recipe contains all the steps.

This saves you clicking around and you will find a complete guide on one 🙂 longer page.

Next, let’s look at the classic derivatives of “sauce mayonnaise.”

Derivatives are sauces that contain mayonnaise as a base and are then refined with other ingredients.

In classic cuisine, mayonnaise is a cold oil base sauce.

The following diagram gives you an initial overview of our kitchen adventures:

I always mix mayonnaise, homemade or bought, with crème fraîche, sour cream and lemon juice. This cold base sauce flatters the palate and hips 🙂
