Wimpy Sauce

This Wimpy Sauce is the kind of sauce that can add a nice, enjoyable flavor to your meal. I just published another copycat sauce that turned out so good, Schlotzsky’s Signature Sauce, and now it’s time to make another one with the same passion.

To recreate this Wimpy Sauce, the process was a little bit easier than my previous copycat sauce. Instead of just buying a bottle and guessing, I followed the same method I always use when making copycat recipes, I keep tasting and adjusting. This time, Wimpy Sauce was a little confusing, so I got help from my husband until we agreed it needed a mix of tangy and sweet flavors. That’s why we used mayo and ketchup as the base.

While making it, I added yellow mustard, which gave it a more unique taste. I also added pickle relish, I liked the flavors at that moment as it was already good. Even if it wasn’t exactly the original taste that I was looking for, my version so far tasted delicious and With a few more spices and powders, we ended up with a sauce that’s really close to the real one.

I also shared this recipe with my sister, and she was motivated to made her own version as well. Of course, I’ll share her experience later after she finishes perfecting her recipe.

What to Eat with Wimpy Sauce?

You can enjoy your Wimpy Sauce with fries, chicken nuggets, or even grilled shrimp. The sauce goes so deliciously with Cherry Blossom Chicken too, as I had some leftovers and tried just a little with it, the tangy flavors of the sauce mixed so well in my mouth with the sweet blossom flavors.
