theunderstudy Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 Hellmanns hotdog sauce is lovely mustard and mayo I think. Chindie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted March 22, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted March 22, 2011 So we have Thousand Island, Marie Rose & Seafood Sauce...are they all the same? I think seafood sauce is Marie Rose sauce - it's what you get in a prawn cocktail (oooer on a football site, Roy Keane will be fuming). They're all based off a tomato sauce and mayo base, but the others add other spicings and ingredients to it to mix it up. Marie Rose is literally tomato sauce and mayo. Thousand Island adds in stuff like vinegar, Worcester Sauce, mustard etc to give it a bit more tang, it tends to be quite thin too (it's a salad dressing at the end of the day). EDIT - I'd put money on Hellmans Burger Sauce being similar to these 2 but not exactly the same, but probably along the same lines - tomato sauce, mayo, and some spicier racier ingredients to give it some oomph. You could probably knock up your own a few minutes with some stuff from the cupboard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theunderstudy Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 Yeah you've got to establish where sauce ends and dressing begins. (Double entendre) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brumerican Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Ive seen it about, but have always been sceptical that it wouldnt be as good. Will give it a try on your say so at some point. I've never tried the Baron version so I have no idea whether Encona is better or worse but it's definitely VERY hot ! . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted March 22, 2011 Moderator Share Posted March 22, 2011 Paprika is tastless, it's just a colouring. :| It's dried ground sweet pepper. Not flavourless at all. Rub some on a chicken breast and cook it in the oven and tell me it doesn't make it a whole lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted March 22, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted March 22, 2011 I'd try adding some Worcester Sauce as well Wiggy, not a lot, but I bet it makes a difference, for the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted March 22, 2011 Moderator Share Posted March 22, 2011 It's shit! Cayenne Pepper, now you've got some zing. They're different things. Both have their place though. I'm partial to either of them but if you're going for cayenne you may aswell go the whole hog and either use some habanero tabasco or some chili powder. No point faffing about with half measures.

Chindie Posted March 22, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted March 22, 2011 No worries, enjoy the experiment. You could stumble on the next Reggae Reggae Sauce. Wiggy Wiggy Sauce? According to mySupermarket.co.uk, Tesco still sell a Hellmann's Burger Sauce, but it's not a squeezy bottle. On the condiments note, I bloody love barbeque sauce, the best I've ever had is Cattlemans, which I'm fairly sure is only sold in Waitrose . But it's bloody gorgeous.

Genie Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 The things that cheer you up thread just reminded me of a really good "thing that annoys me but shouldn't", when you're at the pool or beach on holiday and a woman in your eye line (across the pool for example) goes topless. Of course its generally a great sight, but because she is right ahead of me I have to go out of my way to look like I'm NOT perving on her.
