Remoulade Recipe and its variations

One day I made Remoulade sauce for my French fries and enjoyed how it tasted good with blending flavors of spices in sauce to bring the potato flavor out. I tried to tell other friends to try this but they thought I am crazy until they tried my discovery. Unfortunately, I lost the best recipe for my secret sauce….Got to look for it in file box that were buried under many boxes stacked up….

For some years, I had searched for good recipe on Remoulade recipe for the hope that I will find one and build a secret “perfect” sauce for my Fish and Chip dinner. I am still working on a recipe to make perfect sauce for my French Fries or some good Chips. Hope I will share—no heck, I will not.

Few weeks ago, I have watched Bob Flay Throwdown and Bob had made  his BLT against other guy who made green tomato BLT sandwiches along with Remoulade sauce. I had noticed that both guys had made the variations of this classic sauce. That’s how it caused me to “research”  to make sure that there are no “adulterations” in making the classic sauce and found that I got many “variations” to create the “secret sauce” like that one young Chef said on her blog. I already checked my “French” cookbook for classic recipe, just make sure I didn’t misread with all variations but there are lot of recipes with interesting ingredients to make “secret sauce.”

Personally, I wanted Bob Flay lost every challenge on his Throwdown because I like the amateurs and Chefs to win. Sometime I suspected that the show is staged in order for the dramatic win or losing. Bob, I am sorry but that’s how I watched the shows. Well, I love underdogs—you never know until an underdog did something incredible to beat the best.

I am still searching for “perfect” sauce for my French Fries—don’t think I will share this with you foodies. There are good list of comments along with Remoulade Sauce recipes from Serious Eats, my favorite site to visit for new info or other reason why I like are their recipes—I have to admit their site made me little jealous because its site look so good than my blog. I have to learn something new from it, so I can make my blog look good by adding whatever so good to my blog design.

Found a recipe from my MasterCook, I noticed it is similar to other recipe from Southern.
