Mayonnaise sauce with gherkins

4 servings

5 minutes

Mayonnaise sauce with cornichons is a delicate and tangy addition to French cuisine dishes. Its base is classic mayonnaise, which has a soft and creamy texture, while pickled cornichons add a refreshing crunch and slight acidity. This sauce is considered a variation of traditional French remoulade and pairs perfectly with fish, seafood, and meat. Its origins trace back to French gastronomy, where pickled vegetables are often used to enhance flavor depth. This sauce is easy to prepare: simply finely chop the cornichons and mix them with mayonnaise. The result is a sauce with a bright yet harmonious flavor that can be a wonderful complement to sandwiches or appetizers.
