Apparently, the author of the website this photo is taken from doesn't know the difference. The recipe on that page is: 1 egg, 2 tablespoons of vinegar, 2 tablespoons of mustard 200 ml of oil, salt, pepper. That's mayonnaise. Other than a bit more mustard, there are none of the ingredients that distinguish (french or other) remoulade from mayo, as described in the article as well as in standard cooking books. -- [[User:MegA|megA]] ([[User talk:MegA|talk]]) 23:13, 23 April 2015 (UTC) |

To me remoulade is mainly used for 1) Dip for french fries, 2) On top of roast beef together with roasted onions. Should we add these exmaples to diversify its usage?
anyone have a receipt so I can make some?
Covering spoiled flavors
How about a reliable source for the statement "Its original purpose was possibly for serving with meats, possibly to cover the taste of food that had spoiled from failed early preservation techniques?" Two studies at Cornell University dismiss the "spoiled food" theory. Their findings lend more weight to the "prevent spoiled food" theory than the "cover up spoiled food" theory. While it most likely was for serving with meats, its purpose was not to "cover the taste of food that had spoiled from failed early preservation techniques."

While use of spices may have prevented food spoilage in many circumstances, a mayonnaise-based sauce applied after food is cooked would have no use. The sauce would spoil before the meat would spoil. Jlhollin (talk) 14:41, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
While spices used in a mayonnaise-based sauce would help prevent the sauce itself from spoilage. Again, the "cover up spoiled food" theory is weak and has no verifiable sources. Kemkerj (talk) 18:50, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

Missing link
I think the sub-domain deepsouth is defunct. I didn't have any luck trying to find "remoulade.txt" from the link: http://deepsouth.tulane.edu/culinary/web/learning_lore.asp?id=remoulade.txt —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.162.255.198 (talk) 16:37, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
The Deep South Regional Humanities Center at Tulane was a victim of Katrina. Nothing on the Tulane website indicates it will ever reopen. I have made a remark on the link. Jlhollin (talk) 14:25, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
Iceland
Iceland is a country, and not just a tiny island, so in common (American) English usage, the preposition "in" applies to its use as a country, whereas the preposition "on" would apply to its use as an island (perhaps if the subject were one of geology or topography). When speaking of the country of Iceland, we say "In Iceland...", not "On Iceland...". Just the same, we say "In Hawaii..." when referring to the state of Hawaii, and "On Hawaii..." when referring to the island of Hawaii. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wilhelm meis (talk • contribs) 23:40, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
Use
It is very popular in France, Denmark and in the United States, especially in Louisiana Creole cuisine. Among other uses, it is used with french fries, on top of roast beef items and as a hot dog condiment, although there are a multitude of other applications:
It is very popular in Germany as well. You will always be able to eat a e.g. Fischbrötchen with Remoulade. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.141.115.224 (talk) 11:29, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
Since some years you can buy Danish Remoulade in Germany too, not only in the North. It has become quite popular. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.202.186.3 (talk) 10:40, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
I had to do away with this sentence, as it is too vague to mean anything at all: "In private homes, it may occasionally have a wider application suggestive of its French roots." In other words, some humans on earth sometimes use remoulade like the French do. You don't say!
Sweden
Article (20110901) states "Marketed as "Danish remoulade", it has become popular in Germany and Sweden, but there mostly for fish with boiled potatoes, dill and perhaps creamed spinach. Many German and Swedish hot dog stands serve an optional "Danish hot dog" as described above.". Most certainly I have never seen any "Danish" remoulade sauce in Sweden neither any hot dogs being sold as "Danish" hot dogs. Person who wrote that must never have been in Sweden. In Sweden Remoulade sauce, or "Remuladsås", is used for bread crumbs coated fish and any such sauce sold in Sweden states "Remuladsås" and has no mention of anything danish whatsoever. What a very weird claim, as it is totally untrue. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.113.50.44 (talk) 13:13, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
Creole remoulade
"Louisiana remoulade can vary from the elegant French-African Creole, the rustic Afro-Caribbean Creole, or the Classic Cajun version" - are the "elegant" and "rustic" actual in-use classifications or just someone's value judgement? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.198.105.21 (talk) 00:56, 16 July 2014 (UTC)
