In the mid-west, they have a dipping sauce that is essentially a combination of ketchup and mayonnaise… I thought I would kick it up a bit with a few more ingredients. This is not just for fries; I really love it as a dip for things like breaded chicken tenders and the like. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.
