This is a simple, classic burger sauce.
Mechanic
A 1:1:1 ratio by volume: mayo, diced burger pickles, mustard. Kewpie in place of or alongside regular mayo adds sweetness and acidity.
1Mayo
1Pickles
1Mustard
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise or Kewpie mayo (or 1 tablespoon each)
- 2 tablespoons diced burger pickles (bread and butter style)
- 2 tablespoons yellow or Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon sweet or smoked paprika
Method
Stir together. Taste and adjust ratios.
To serve
On Swiss, mozza-style, or deluxe burgers. Good as a spread on both bun halves.
Notes
- Developed for A&W-style mozza burger.
- The ratios are starting points; lean more mayo for a milder sauce, more pickle for brightness.
- A small squeeze of ketchup or splash of pickle brine can soften the mustard edge.
