Sauce

Hunger makes the bast sauce.

But if you are out of hunger, there are other sauces you can improvise.

In college it was pepper and ketchup.

The liquid cheez dispenser at 7-11 offers a plethora of ideas.

Plenty of folks brew their own cocktail sauce.  It's just horseradish and ketchup.

Ketchup and mayo for Thousand Island style.  Mayo and French dressing for McDonalds special sauce.

A pinch of pepper flakes zips up most things.  Or a dash of hot sauce to your cheez whiz, I know plenty that do that.

Saw this Old Style sauce, linked by Lileks.com.  Intrigued.

  • 1/2 cup good quality mayonnaise 
  •  2 tablespoons horseradish sauce 
  •  2 teaspoons good quality ketchup 
  •  1/4 teaspoon paprika 
  •  1/4 teaspoon salt 
  •  1/8 teaspoon dried oregano 
  •  Dash black pepper 
  •  Dash cayenne pepper
What fancy mad scientist kitchen sauce recipes do you swear by?  I need more soss variety.

I'm going to make that old style sauce.
I use various sauces as marinades. One is water, Soy and crushed garlic, another is just blended Serrano, Jalapeno or another small red pepper blended with water, oil or vinegar.
