How to Use Mustard Miso Mayo
- Sandwiches and wraps: It's the spread in my Rotisserie Chicken Sandwich, both on the bread and folded into the warm chicken. It's just as good in my Tuna Melt or Chicken Shawarma Wrap, or any of my other sandwiches and wraps.
- Burgers: Spread it on the bun for my Crispy Panko Chicken Burger or Classic American Cheeseburger.
- Fries and potatoes: Use it as a dip for my Air Fryer French Fries, Air Fryer Sweet Potato Fries or Air Fryer Cajun Potato Wedges.
- Chicken: It's a great dip for my Air Fryer Chicken Nuggets and Air Fryer Chicken Tenders, and an easy way to dress up leftovers from any of my chicken recipes.
- Salmon: Try spreading a thin layer on top of my Air Fryer Salmon before it cooks for a savory, golden top. Find more ideas in my seafood recipes.
- Deviled eggs: Mix a spoonful into the yolks for my Instant Pot Deviled Eggs. You'll find more in my egg recipes.
- Sushi and rice bowls: Drizzle it over my Salmon Poke Bowl or Sushi Cones. It fits right in with my other Japanese recipes.
- Party dip: Serve it with raw veggies or crackers next to any of my appetizers and snacks.
Storing Mustard Miso Mayo
Keep it in a squeeze bottle or a sealed mason jar in the fridge. Give it a quick stir before using.
