Ingredients

  • ½ cup (115g) mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup (80g) sour cream (or simply use all mayonnaise)
  • 2 Tbsp (34g) ketchup
  • 2 Tbsp (30g) dill pickle relish or sweet pickle relish
  • 2 Tbsp minced white onion, from ¼ small white onion
  • 1 Tbsp (15g) jarred horseradish
  • 1 Tbsp (15g) fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp yellow mustard
  • ¼ tsp kosher salt

Instructions

  • Make Russian dressing. In a medium bowl, combine ½ cup mayonnaise, ¼ cup sour cream, 2 Tbsp ketchup, 2 Tbsp relish, 2 Tbsp minced white onion, 1 Tbsp jarred horseradish, 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice, 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce, 1 tsp yellow mustard, and ¼ tsp kosher salt. Stir well, then refrigerate until needed.

Notes

  • Make-ahead: Russian dressing can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge for up to one week. In fact, it tastes even better after sitting for a few hours!
  • Storage: Store your dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Stir before using, as some separation may occur. Freezing is not recommended.
