"Come Back" Sauce


This sauce originated at the Mayflower Cafe in Jackson, Mississippi, where it was the house salad dressing. It got its name because diners kept "coming back" for it. Come Back Sauce pairs well with any kind of fried food (try fried green tomatoes) and also makes a tasty dip for cold boiled shrimp.






Ingredients:

1 tbsp. grated onion (using the large holes of a box grater)
1 cup mayonnaise
3 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp. vegetable oil
1 tbsp. prepared chili sauce
1 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp. dry mustard
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

Preparation:

Combine all the ingredients in a medium bowl and stir well. If the sauce is too thick to drizzle, add 1 tbsp. water to thin.  Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
Try it with "Nannies Catfish Cakes"; wonderful!
