Came here to mention tzatziki. With some cucumber sticks on a hot summer day? Absolutely glorious
Keeping it classy for my 1000th post

I apologize for my ignorance. What the hell is that?
NottaLottaOcelot@lemmy.ca 1 month ago
Yogurt, cucumber, dill, lemon, garlic. Really nice with grilled meats or roasted veggies
some_kind_of_guy@lemmy.world 1 month ago
You’re one of today’s lucky 10,000!
Tzatziki is a creamy, tangy Greek yogurt-based sauce or dip made with shredded cucumber, garlic, olive oil, and fresh herbs like dill or mint, often served as a meze (appetizer) with pita bread and vegetables, or as a topping for gyros, souvlaki, and grilled meats or fish. It’s known for being cool, refreshing, and versatile, with a simple preparation that involves mixing strained yogurt with grated, squeezed cucumber, minced garlic, herbs, and a splash of lemon juice or vinegar.

Legit top tier condiment that has supplanted mayonnaise and like half of the us doesnt even know it.
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 1 month ago
If you don’t know the difference between mayo and Miracle Whip, then you shouldn’t even be participating in this discussion.
0ops@piefed.zip 1 month ago
I feel like I’m the only person who enjoys both. I have a bottle of each in my fridge right now
Tattorack@lemmy.world 1 month ago
I would very much rather not. That stuff is toxic as hell and I’m glad it’s not in Europe.
danc4498@lemmy.world 1 month ago
I always wondered why some mayo based foods tasted rotten. I figured out much later it was cause they used miracle whip. As Mayo goes, Dukes or gtfo.

Bechamel is kinda mid without something else going on
FurryMemesAccount@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 month ago
Pretty banger IMO. Do you include salt, pepper and nutmeg when you make it ?
9point6@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Salt and pepper usually, the nutmeg not so much actually, but I pretty much only make it when I’m making a lasagne or as a step on the way to cheese sauce
some_kind_of_guy@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Béchamel is one of the mother sauces. It’s meant to be used as a base or carrier sauce, never on its own. You can make an absolutely fire mac and cheese sauce by starting with a béchamel btw. Just don’t skip the flour sifter, that shit’s vital.
varjen@lemmy.world 1 month ago
One of these things are not like the others.
Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 month ago
Yeah, most wouldn’t consider sour cream a sauce 😉
varjen@lemmy.world 1 month ago
And looking closer ranch is actually a dressing, not a sauce.
Fedizen@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Nut.

Ejaculatory fluid. She declares that it’s not trash. She likes it. It’s fire.

Mayonnaise
Casterial@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Is the best one ever
SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 1 month ago
By itself? Absolutely disgusting.
As the base for a thousand other sauces and condiments? Absolutely vital.
Tattorack@lemmy.world 1 month ago
My least favourite. I take ketchup over mayo.
mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 1 month ago

HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 month ago
most ranch is trash, but have you ever had uncle dan’s? It’s pretty good
humanamerican@lemmy.zip 1 month ago
The only Uncle Dan I know is a pedo. Thankfully he never made me taste his ranch.

Which are which?

You’re wrong. They’re all soups. /s

I think you mean Broth
ivanafterall@lemmy.world 1 month ago
They’re also all goops.

Tattorack@lemmy.world 1 month ago
I dunno. I find sourcream and ranch overrated.
I’m more partial to eastern sauces.

Under-represented but absolutely fire is Toum.
AnarchistArtificer@slrpnk.net 1 month ago
Toum is so good. It forever ruined garlic mayo for me.
For anyone who doesn’t know toum is a Lebanese sauce that uses garlic as the emulsifier, rather than eggs. This means that it’s also vegan. Garlic is also a weaker emulsifier than eggs, so it’s insanely garlicky. Any vampire hunters should consider getting Lebanese food before their next hunting trip for this reason

What nut gives white sauce? Can’t imagine.

Do people consider sour cream a souce?
Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 month ago
Yeah, some people even consider ketchup, mayonnaise, and mustard sauces.
Language when wielded irresponsibly can be a mysterious and terrible thing.
doughless@lemmy.world 1 month ago
My son uses ketchup as if it were a sauce …
FreshLight@sh.itjust.works 1 month ago
condiment to sauce is a spectrum :)
danc4498@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Milk is a saucy, you just gotta leave it on the counter long enough.
jballs@sh.itjust.works 1 month ago
I have one of those meal delivery kit subscriptions where they send you ingredients and recipes each week for you to make their meals. I am surprised at how many different sauces can be made with sour cream. Add a little bit of water, garlic, salt and pepper, - and you’ve got a delicious white sauce that goes on almost anything.
esc@piefed.social 1 month ago
Well yeah, no question there, but by itself it kind of doesn’t count?

Add lime juice and yes
