Foodie School - Sauces

Today we are going to learn about one of the classic French sauces called Remoulade [ray-muh-LAHD]. This sauce is easy to make with endless derivatives. A remoulade is made by combining homemade mayonnaise with mustard, capers, chopped gherkins, herbs and anchovies. It's served chilled as an accompaniment to cold meat, fish, and shellfish. I know not everyone wants to make mayonnaise from scratch so if you do opt for store bought, please use a high quality dressing as this will affect the flavor of your sauce.
