Why This Recipe Works
- The sweet-sour balance of ketchup is accentuated with the addition of red wine vinegar and sugar.
- Mayonnaise tempers and smooths out the dressing with a hint of creaminess.
- Puréed onion, garlic powder, and Worcestershire add savory depth and piquancy.
I added some mayonnaise to this dressing to get a creamier result. If you wish to make a traditional version, omit the mayonnaise.
