Sauce to replace mayonnaise

1 serving

10 minutes

This delicate, velvety sauce is the perfect alternative to classic mayonnaise, featuring a light tang from lemon juice and a spicy hint of mustard. Its origin is linked to the search for a lighter and healthier version of the traditional sauce suitable for salads, sandwiches, and many other dishes in European cuisine. The olive oil gives it an exquisite texture while the sour cream makes the flavor soft and harmonious. This sauce pairs wonderfully with vegetables, meat, and fish, enhancing their natural flavors without excessive greasiness. Easy to prepare and versatile, it will be a great addition to any dish that requires mayonnaise but desires more lightness and richness in taste.
