Ingredients
2 tablespoons minced celery leaves
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
1 garlic clove, minced
3 scallions, white and light green parts, finely minced
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 teaspoon prepared horseradish
½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
3 drops Tabasco sauce
2 tablespoons Creole mustard or coarse-grained mustard
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
freshly ground black pepper
Directions
In a small bowl, combine the minced celery leaves, fresh parsley, garlic, and scallions. Mix well to distribute the fresh ingredients evenly.
Add the lemon juice to the herb mixture and stir to combine.
Stir in the prepared horseradish, Worcestershire sauce, and Creole mustard until fully incorporated.
Add the mayonnaise and blend until the sauce reaches a smooth, cohesive consistency.
Season with kosher salt and smoked paprika, stirring to incorporate the spices.
Add 3 drops of Tabasco sauce and taste the sauce. Continue adding Tabasco in single drops (up to 10 total) until you reach your desired level of heat.
Season with freshly ground black pepper to taste. Stir well and serve immediately, or refrigerate until ready to use.
Comments
This is a straightforward condiment all Charlotte grocers stock—celery, parsley, garlic, scallion, lemon, horseradish, Worcestershire, Tabasco, mustard, and mayo are reliably available at Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Walmart, or ALDI without a second trip. At roughly $3–4 total for a small batch serving one, the cost per serving is reasonable if you're using it for fried shrimp or catfish, though the yield of a single serving limits its household appeal. The stated 10 minutes is honest for chopping and stirring; this genuinely is a quick sauce. The real limitation is that one serving of remoulade is odd—you'll make extra almost by default, and it keeps well in the fridge for a week, making it far more useful as a condiment component than a single-portion recipe suggests.
