As the name suggests, Creole mustard is a dominant flavor in Creole potato salad. Both mustard and mayo are added in equal amounts, although you can opt to add in a dash of Creole seasoning to amp up the spice.
It makes sense to add a larger amount of the mustard to Creole potato salad, but if you just want a small kick in other recipes, mixing a quarter or half the amount into mayonnaise works, too.
The mustard works especially well in creamy dill potato salad. The recipe already contains Dijon mustard, so Creole mustard comes in to prop up the spicy, tangy condiment with a savory, sweet take.
The blend of herbs in the condiment is great for complementing the dill, too.
Creole mustard makes for a delicious addition to bacon and egg ranch potato salad; the acidic, sweet sauce elevates smoky bacon while delivering a savory punch to the eggs and ranch.
To really give your potato salad a Louisiana taste, you can pair the Creole mustard with a few essential Cajun ingredients.
Though Cajun and Creole cuisines are different, they share culinary similarities that are sure to improve upon any potato salad. Bring a hint of umami to the potato salad with Andouille sausage and some fermented black garlic.
