For 12 tablespoons

½ cup mayonnaise, preferably whole egg mayonnaise
2 tbsp Dijon mustard
2 tbsp honey
1–2 tsp apple cider vinegar or lemon juice
salt and white pepper, a pinch; black pepper may be substituted

Instructions

Step 1: Mix the ingredients together, starting with 1 teaspoon of vinegar or lemon juice. Add more if you want the sauce a bit tangier. It is ready to use.

Notes

For a lower-fat version, substitute yogurt for the mayonnaise. Use a 50/50 mix of Dijon and American yellow mustard for a brighter yellow colour.

Store the sauce in the fridge for 2 to 3 weeks.
