Avocado Oil Mayonnaise, store-bought or homemade
cups
Cajun Seasoning
tablespoons
teaspoons
1. Mix Base Ingredients
Begin by placing ¼ cup of avocado oil mayonnaise into a small bowl. Add in 1 tablespoon of Cajun seasoning and ½ teaspoon of hot sauce. Whisk these ingredients together thoroughly. This ensures the flavors are evenly distributed throughout the mayonnaise, creating a smooth and consistently colored mixture.
2. Adjust Heat Level
Once you have a well-mixed base, taste the mayonnaise. If you prefer a spicier kick, gradually add more hot sauce, up to 1 teaspoon total, and whisk again until fully incorporated. Adjusting the hot sauce allows you to control the heat level to suit your preference.
Opt for a good-quality mayonnaise as your base or consider making your own mayonnaise from scratch with fresh egg yolks, a neutral oil, and a touch of Dijon mustard.
Purchase small amounts of spices from a reputable vendor and mix your own Cajun seasoning blend. Toasting the spices gently before grinding can also intensify their flavors.
Adjust the ingredients to suit your personal preference or to complement the dish you're serving it with.
Let the Cajun Kick Mayonnaise rest in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving to allow flavors to meld and deepen.
Use cayenne pepper judiciously and consider adding smoked paprika for depth and a touch of smokiness. Opt for a hot sauce that offers both heat and flavor.
