Notes
Use Good Quality Mayonnaise – It’s the base of the sauce, so it matters!
Adjust the Heat – More cayenne or hot sauce if you like it fiery.
Let It Rest – Chilling intensifies and balances the flavors.
Chop Ingredients Finely – A smooth, even texture is key.
Taste As You Go – Always adjust seasoning to your preference.
