Here’s an easy mayo mustard sauce with a bit of kick. Spread it on burgers, sandwiches, or sausages, or use it as a dip. With just two ingredients, it’s quick to make, and it’s ready in under 5 minutes!

This mayo mustard sauce is my go-to when I want big flavor with almost no effort. It’s made with just two ingredients, which almost feels too simple to call a recipe, but it’s so useful that I make it all the time.

I originally started making it for my German-inspired bratwurst burgers, but it quickly became a staple. I use it on burgers, sandwiches, and sausages, and it doubles as an easy dip for fish cakes, fries, chicken strips, or fresh vegetables.

One of the things I love most is how easy it is to customize. Different mustards give it a completely different personality, so I’ll mix it up depending on what I’m serving. It comes together in seconds, keeps well in the fridge, and is perfect to have on hand when I need a quick flavor boost. For something extra special, try making this dip with my easy mayo recipe!

If you love creamy mayonnaise dipping sauces, also try our kimchi mayo and curry mayo!

When to use mayo mustard sauce

This creamy mustard mayo sauce is perfect for spreading on burgers, sausages, and sandwiches. You can also use this as a tasty dip for dill french fries or easy chicken bites!

It’s equally delicious as a dip for appetizers, chips, pretzels, chicken strips, french fries, and more!

Notes

In the pictures, I used German mustard, which is similar to a mild Dijon mustard. If you enjoy the flavor of yellow mustard, go ahead and use that. For a bit of heat, Dijon is lovely. Or, if you want a little sweetness, opt for Bavarian-style sweet mustard.

This recipe tastes just like the sauce they use at my all time favorite sandwich shop halfway across the country from where I now live. This has made my year.

Wow ! What an astoundingly, helpful and delectable recipe. I never could have dreamed that such a ; delicious creation could make its way into my life. My husband and I are reinvigorating our passion for one another, thanks in part, to the bit of kick provided by creative and thoughtful recipes such as this .. . Would, you please consider righting another recipe similar to this one but sweet as well? I’m thinking something like keytchup but I’m not entirely sure what to mix it with or how. All the best and much love xoxo
