A bit of spice tempered by a touch of sweet, this creamy Sweet Cayenne Mustard Sauce is a bit different and totally awesome. Developed by the Sparrow Tavern in Astoria, New York, for their Veggie Burgers, which are also here on my site.

The Sparrow Sweet Cayenne Mustard Sauce

I had no actual recipe to go by, but watched a video on Diners Drive In & Dives (like 10 times) as they made it. I made one teensy change and added a touch of sour cream just to thicken the sauce up a bit.

If you’re looking to use this sauce with the Sparrow Veggie Burgers, it needs a good bit of spice to balance out all the flavors. A half cup of this Sweet Cayenne Mustard Sauce is a great amount for four Veggie Burgers, double if making eight.

You might well find yourself thinking of all kinds of other things to put this sauce on. I love it on these Grilled Southwestern Lime Chicken Breasts. And on the sandwiches I make, if there is any chicken leftover!

And it’s fabulous with my easy Crispy Sweet Potato Fries. Just sayin’!
