Stir in some horseradish too and dip your seafood in it or fried chicken fingers or fried cheese sticks or muchrooms! Ummmm………….. one of those souther thingy’s you’ll swoon as you take each bite! I grew up eating this in southern Florida as a Florida remolaude.

I’ll have to give the pepper a try…My Mama always made a “special” sauce for us when we were kids, much like your comeback sauce, but with the addition of mustard. Delish on hot dogs, burgers and to dip fries in. I make it for my kids now…my son, who is soo not a condiment lover, actually asks me to make my “secret” or “special” sauce. Such a simple thing, huh?

If yall are ever in Louisiana or East Texas, hunt down a place called Raising Cane’s. They have a version of comeback sauce, that the receipt is a deeply guarded secret. They serve chicken fingers, and I tell you that place and their sauce is addictive. I might try making this with chili sauce which is more my thing than ketchup, or follow one of the suggestions and add a bit of horseradish.

Also I have to share my garage sale bargain…I got a hardback copy of “The Joy Of Cooking” for 2 bucks! That’s going for like 35 dollars now. I read, ok, gloated over it, all weekend!

We use this sauce with no pepper for prawn cocktails/ seafood sandwiches etc. Tastes very nice. With the pepper I’ll bet it is great with hamburgers.

I agree—got to be Duke’s. I thought we had a lot in common, Christy, but I have to confess, I’m a mayo freak. I’ll eat it on about anything, including french fries ‘course it has to be light, since I’m a diabetic. I also use much Splenda—never the “pink stuff”

in order to be a truly southern plate Dukes mayonaise is a must, in fact it may be sinful for a southerner to use any other…

I am originally from Holland and your recipes remind me a lot of my mother’s and grandmother’s cooking (god bless their souls). My mother would make a sauce like this with a little Tabasco or hot pepper sauce instead of pepper. She would serve this as a dip sauce with shrimps or with salty snacks such as chips. Delicious! Thank you for this wonderful site!

Back in the 80’s I had a friend that worked at LJS all the people who worked there used to use a sauce like this BUT we also added VINEGAR and HOT SAUCE.. Talk about good.. We used it on fryed breaded chicken from Long John Slivers. You really have to try it sometime.. Talk about good!!!

I forget what they called it but I had it every single time I went up to visit them.
