Cocktail Sauce

 

My brother-in-law George, who was a Michelin Star Chef, taught me how to make this simple sauce in his restaurant when a customer asked for a shrimp cocktail, but the food order didn’t deliver the premade sauce that day. He didn’t panic; he just grabbed 4 ingredients and began making it from scratch. I was in awe once he was finished and I tasted his newly made sauce. It was perfect! After the shift, I asked him to give me the recipe, and this was what he gave me. Enjoy!

Ingredients

1 cup of ketchup

1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

1 – 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish

Splash of Worcestershire sauce*

Instructions

In a bowl, stir together the ketchup, lemon juice, 1 tablespoon horseradish and Worcestershire sauce.

If desired, add remaining horseradish.
