In my home state, Louisiana-style remoulade sauce is a creamy, tartar sauce-like sauce made with mayonnaise, whole grain mustard, horseradish, lemon and just the right amount of spices and dried herbs for loads of bright, inviting flavor.
Shrimp remoulade is a famous New Orleans dish which was invented at the venerable restaurant, Arnaud’s. They began serving the recipe, which they call Shrimp Arnaud, back in 1918.
One of the best of the cajun/creole style sauces is Louisiana remoulade sauce. It is a tangy, slightly spicy sauce that lights up a variety of foods!
With roots in Europe, remoulade (reh-moo-lahd) made it’s way across the Atlantic a long time ago and found a very welcome home in the coastal south.
