Honey Mustard Sauce - Something to Dip Your Fingers Into

Very soon, maybe tomorrow, I'm going to be airing a crispy chicken finger how-to video and this honey mustard sauce recipe would have made it too long, so I'm posting it separately.

One reason there was no extra time in the chicken recipe was, in addition to showing you how to make chicken fingers for your Super Bowl party, I'll also be showing off an exciting new gadget I've been using recently. Hint: think biggest smart phone launch ever.

In the meantime, make some sauce and get ready to do some serious dipping. Enjoy!




Ingredients:
1/3 cup real mayo
2 tbsp Dijon
2 tsp yellow mustard
1 tbsp rice vinegar
2 tbsp honey
1/2 tsp hot sauce

Sweet! Looking forward to the chicken fingers video recipe! Total mustard/mayo-phobic so I'll just have to get the ranch and Frank's Red Hot out instead.

How great is this? I agree with you on the "why-can't-we-use-both?" front, but this is so quick and easy that I'm tempted to make this on three occasions to taste the difference between just yellow, just dijon, and both together.

As always, thanks for another great inspiration.

I tried this one but it did not turn out to be as good as yours. But it was appreciated by all in our family. Next time I want to try making it still better. I have already taken out prints of your recipe.

oh oh oh... I can't wait for the chicken finger video. I think I might have to have all my friends over and have a Dip night, where we only eat foods that involve dipping.

I'm starting to think I'm going to have a mustard based Super Bowl. Looking forward to trying this along with the chicken fingers. I loved, and have fixed a couple times now, your mustard wings recipe. Oh so good! Those will be made Super Bowl Sunday fo' sho!

FYI, I received a Hickory Farms brand cranberry mustard for Christmas and man is it good! I used some in a meatloaf recently and everybody loved it and was asking for the recipe. Of course I learned how to make a great meatloaf from Chef John thanks to Food Wishes!

Hey Chef,S.O.S.
Loved your U tube spot, just wanted to know if you have a "RUSSIAN" dressing recipe for your Super Bowl wings. I want to make the wings but haven't seen a recipe for the dressing that I liked. Thanks again.

I've been doing the sauce ever since I watched your video with honey-mustard wings. I took that mix and added the mayo, and cut out some of the honey. Wow, I see I was right on. I'm just wondering, over there you use cider vinegar, and here you use rice, when to use what?

Adriana A. said...

tried it and it turned out delicious! the vinegar really made the difference
