Notes
Ingredient Substitutions:
If you can’t find Creole mustard, use Dijon mustard as a substitute.
For a milder version, reduce or omit the cayenne pepper and hot sauce.
Replace mayonnaise with Greek yogurt or vegan mayo for a lighter or dairy-free option.
Spice Level Adjustments:
Adjust the heat to your preference by adding more or less hot sauce and cayenne pepper.
Taste the remoulade before chilling and tweak the seasoning as needed.
Chilling Time:
Let the remoulade chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to blend and deepen.
For the best results, make it a day ahead to maximize flavor development.
Storage Tips:
Store the remoulade in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
Avoid freezing, as it can alter the texture and flavor.
