Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup mayonnaise could be low fat
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce
  • 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise and ketchup. Use a whisk to blend them until they form a smooth mixture. Look for a creamy texture and a light pink color, indicating that the two ingredients are well incorporated.
  2. Add in the honey to the mixture. This will provide a nice contrast to the savory elements. Whisk again until the honey is completely blended in, ensuring there are no lumps. The sauce should start to thicken slightly.
  3. Next, drizzle the hot sauce into the bowl. Adjust the amount according to your heat preference. I usually start with one tablespoon and gradually add more if I want extra spiciness. Whisk the mixture some more until everything is well distributed.
  4. Now, sprinkle in the Cajun seasoning. This ingredient is a game changer, adding depth and warmth to the sauce. Stir thoroughly, making sure the seasoning is evenly mixed in.
  5. Finally, add the Worcestershire sauce. This ingredient ties it all together, bringing a savory richness. Mix it all up once more until you have a uniform sauce, with no streaks of any ingredients showing.
  6. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or a lid. Let the sauce refrigerate for at least an hour before serving. This resting period allows the flavors to meld beautifully, enhancing the taste.
  7. Once the sauce has chilled, give it a quick stir before serving. This will ensure that all the flavors are nicely blended and that the texture remains creamy.
  8. Serve Comeback Sauce in a small bowl with your favorite snacks or dishes. It’s perfect for dipping! I love serving it with crispy fries, fresh veggies, or even as a spread for sandwiches.
  9. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will last for up to three months, so you can enjoy it whenever a craving strikes!

Notes

  • Tip 1: To store leftovers, keep them in an airtight container in the fridge. It can last for up to three months, making it great for meal prep.
  • Tip 2: This sauce is not recommended for freezing as the texture may change upon thawing.
  • Tip 3: It pairs perfectly with fried foods, grilled meats, and fresh vegetables. Try it on a veggie platter for a fun party snack!
  • Tip 4: Don’t hesitate to experiment with your own spices and flavors. A dash of garlic powder or a squeeze of lemon can add a unique twist.
  • Tip 5: For the best flavor, serve the sauce chilled. Letting it sit out for a few minutes before serving can enhance its taste.
