Ingredients

Scale

Blooming Onion Sauce Ingredients

  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 1 tbsp ketchup
  • 1 tbsp prepared horseradish
  • ½ tsp cayenne pepper
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, ketchup, prepared horseradish, cayenne pepper, paprika, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  2. Mix Thoroughly: Stir the mixture until all ingredients are well combined and the sauce has a uniform texture and color.
  3. Chill the Sauce: Refrigerate the sauce for at least 30 minutes. This resting time allows the flavors to meld and intensify, enhancing the overall taste.
  4. Serve: Use the sauce as a dip for onion rings, fries, or as a flavorful topping for burgers to add a zesty kick.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to control the heat level according to your preference.
  • Prepare the sauce ahead of time to maximize flavor by letting it chill longer.
  • This sauce keeps well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
  • For a lighter version, substitute the mayonnaise with a low-fat or Greek yogurt alternative.
