Durkee Famous Sauce Clone

Recipe #108402 | 25 min | 10 min prep | add private note

This wonderful tasting, versatile sauce has been a secret ingredient in many southern recipes for as long as I can remember. It was originally patented in 1857. It is used in potato salad, cole slaw dressing, remoulade sauce, egg salads and various other salad/dressing recipes. We love it spread on bread for turkey sandwiches. While the "real deal" is still available at grocery stores in southern states, I understand it is becoming very difficult to find elsewhere. I suspect it will eventually become one of those extinct products that we will reminisce some day. I found several copycat recipes on the net but this one works best for me.

2 cups (change servings and units)

LOVE THIS RECIPE!! I use it on everything. I used to used the Durkee meatloaf mix and can no longer find it in stores. I have to order all durkee packages by mail. The meatloaf is AMAZING! I wish i didnt have to mail order seasoning packaets but its worth it.

    Thank you for posting this recipe. I haven't tried it yet but I will. I'm a Southerner living in California and it's very hard to find my favorite ingredient for deviled eggs and chicken salad. Now I have a back up. Thank you.
