WHY YOU'LL LOVE THIS RECIPE
This recipe is a genuine upgrade over regular spicy mayo since the gochujang brings fermented depth that sriracha can't match.
INGREDIENTS
Here is everything you need for this recipe: Kewpie mayo, Gochujang, Lemon juice, Lemon zest, Buttermilk, Garlic, Honey, Salt and black pepper
Add the Kewpie mayo, gochujang, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, buttermilk, grated garlic, and honey to a medium bowl.
STEP 1: COMBINE THE INGREDIENTS
Whisk everything together until fully combined and smooth. The sauce should be creamy, slightly loose, and a beautiful deep reddish-orange color from the gochujang.
STEP 2: WHISK UNTIL SMOOTH
Taste the sauce and adjust to your preference. Add more gochujang for extra heat, more honey if you want it sweeter, or more lemon juice for brightness.
STEP 3: TASTE AND ADJUST
Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate until ready to use. The flavors develop and deepen as it sits.
STEP 4: REFRIGERATE AND SERVE
