Mayonnaise sauce with horseradish and tarragon

4 servings

10 minutes

Horseradish and tarragon mayonnaise sauce is a refined culinary accent that adds zest and freshness to dishes. Its history is linked to European traditions where tarragon is valued for its subtle anise aroma and horseradish for its sharp, invigorating note. Combining them in a creamy base of mayonnaise and yogurt gives this sauce a balanced flavor: delicate, slightly spicy, with the refreshing tang of lemon juice and the sharpness of capers. It pairs excellently with meat, fish, and vegetables and serves as a wonderful addition to appetizers and sandwiches. When chilled, its flavor deepens further, making it ideal for summer dishes. Easy to prepare yet rich in perception, this sauce will be the highlight of any meal.
