rémoulade
Creamy French sauce
Rémoulade is a cold sauce originating in French cuisine, typically made with mayonnaise, mustard, capers, pickles, and herbs.
The classic French version accompanies seafood, cold meats, and vegetables.
In Louisiana, rémoulade takes on a distinctly Cajun character, often reddish from paprika or Creole mustard, and is especially popular with fried shrimp or crab cakes.
The po'boy came slathered in spicy rémoulade.
