Rémoulade
Rémoulade is essentially a homemade mayonnaise loaded with flavor. The sauce was originally created in France, but we put a Creole spin on it with the addition of Louisiana-style hot sauce, Worcestershire, and bell pepper. Though it’s normally served with fried-fish dishes such as our Cornmeal Fried Catfish, we also like it with boiled shrimp or mixed into a potato salad. What to buy: Have all the ingredients at room temperature before you start—the rémoulade will come together better.

Directions
Whisk the egg yolks and Dijon in a medium bowl until evenly blended. Continue whisking and slowly add the oil by pouring it down the side of the bowl in a thin stream.
Once all of the oil has been added, whisk in the lemon juice, hot sauce, Worcestershire, and measured salt and pepper until evenly combined.
Mix in the remaining ingredients until evenly combined. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper as needed. If not using immediately, refrigerate the rémoulade in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
