When you think about a dipping sauce for chicken, french fries, or any other dippable food, what do you reach for in your kitchen? While pre-made or simple sauces such as regular ketchup or ranch dressing are usually the preferred choices for many, the reality is that it isn’t hard to get creative at home!
Here are a few delicious dipping sauce ideas that aren’t difficult to make in your own kitchen.
Curry Ketchup
Adding curry powder, along with a little bit of honey and chili powder, to ketchup results in a sauce that is hugely popular in European countries such as Germany. You can use curry ketchup on hot dogs or to dip your french fries in.
Garlic Mayonnaise
Garlic mayonnaise is so great as a dipping sauce for chicken tenders and as a topping for hamburgers. You can make it by adding pressed garlic cloves along with a touch of lemon juice, stirring, and then leaving to chill.
Honey Mustard
Honey mustard is a classic dipping sauce which many people don’t realize is actually quite simple to make in your own kitchen. Combining honey with dijon mustard (along with a little bit of mayonnaise if you want to improve its texture) results in this long-time favorite.
