Freddy’s Fry Sauce Recipe

Sauces are always unique since they increase the taste of your food. While Freddy’s famous steakburger fry sauce is beyond every level, not everyone will have heard of it.  

Today’s your lucky day if you’re among those who haven’t tried this particular sauce. Freddy’s is far from an average burger joint with frozen custard and steakhouses. But what makes a difference is a sauce they serve, along with their most famous staples.

Freddy’s Fry Sauce is a flavorful and exciting dip for french fries, sandwiches, burgers, and melts. With this Freddy’s Fry Sauce recipe, you’ll be able to replicate it at home.

How to Make Freddy’s Fry Sauce

You can consider it a cross between mayonnaise, burger sauce, ketchup, and mustard. It is tastier and tangier than regular ketchup and brings much more to the dishes. It’s an excellent all-arounder.

There are different types of fry sauce depending on the ingredients you decide to use. However, today we’ll go for as “similar to hotdog mustard with ketchup” version. It contains a bit of pickle juice which is undoubtedly a cutting element. 

However, there are also some “secret ingredients.” Since the best fries have a special seasoning coating, we’ll incorporate it into this Freddy’s Famous Fry sauce to accentuate the flavors.

Ingredients:

(4 servings)

For Freddy’s seasoning:

• 5 tsp salt
• 5 tsp sugar
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp turmeric
• 2 tsp smoked paprika powder
• 1 tsp onion granules
• 1 tsp garlic granules

For Freddy’s Fry sauce:

• 2 tbsp ketchup
• 6 tbsp mayonnaise
• 1 tbsp pickle juice
• 1 dash of hot sauce
• ½ tbsp fry seasoning (made with the above ingredients)

Instructions

As you might have guessed, making Freddy’s Fry Sauce is a two-stage process. In the first stage, we will make Freddy’s fry seasoning, which goes with their famous fries; the second is the Fry Sauce.

Since you most likely already have all of your ingredients on hand, it is super easy to make. The seasoning combines salt and pepper with a few spoons of other spices like paprika, turmeric, onion, and garlic powder.  

As for the Fry Sauce, it doesn’t get much easier. So should we revise everything one more time? 

Step 1: 

Take a medium-sized jar with a measuring spoon. Measure out the paprika, salt, sugar, turmeric, onion, and garlic granules and add them to the jar. 

Step 2: 

Screw the lid on the jar and give it a good shake to combine the ingredients evenly. Set aside. 

Step 3: 

Combine mayonnaise, hot sauce, ketchup, pickle juice, and ½ tablespoon of fry seasoning we’ve just whipped up. 

Take a spoon and stir all the ingredients until they’re smooth and combined evenly. Store or serve immediately. 

Pro tip: we discovered it is better to let the sauce rest in the fridge for about 30 minutes so the flavors can mingle. 

Ingredient Substitution

Since there is a variety of Freddy’s Fry Sauce, you can opt for any you like, whether it’s a hot or mild sauce. However, you can as well adjust this one to suit your palate or dietary requirements. 

1. Sriracha

Sriracha is a famous hot sauce with a spicy and sweet flavor that is the best substitute for hot sauce in this Freddy Fry Sauce. 

Although it has less chili, it is the closest alternative to the hot sauce since it’s made from pepper, vinegar, salt, chili pepper, and garlic and has a thicker consistency close to ketchup.  

Many restaurants consider it in a category of its own. And no wonders. The flavors and the touch of heat it brings to the sauce will work just great.

2. White vinegar

Since pickle juice combines water and vinegar, the ingredient that best replicates the taste of pickle juice has to be white vinegar. Besides, vinegar is the reason for the exquisite taste of pickle juice. So that’s why you can substitute it in this recipe.  

But note that both are sour. So when you don’t have pickle juice available and want to use vinegar, add it depending on the sourness you wish to achieve. 

3. Sour cream

Sour cream has a similar texture and flavor to that of mayonnaise. That’s why it is an ideal substitute in this Freddy’s Fry Sauce. It is creamy, tangy, light, and not all that unhealthy. 

But go for the low-fat sour cream to keep things healthy, and you won’t even be able to miss the mayo in this and many other recipes.

What to Serve with Freddy’s Fry Sauce

Freddy’s Fry Sauce, as the name implies, goes perfectly well with crispy shoestring fries. However, you would deprive yourself if you ate it with fries alone. Here is an opportunity to enjoy its flavors on various other dishes. 

This spicy and savory fry sauce is an excellent dipping for almost anything. The acidity and the heat make it perfect for meat, fish, and fried food. Here are some ideas.

Boom Boom Shrimp

Elevate your Freddy’s Fry Sauce game with a dipper that will surely be a game changer at your next get-together. Boom Boom Shrimp will do the trick here. Cooked shrimp, used to dip in a cocktail sauce, also tastes wonderful when paired with the exquisite fry sauce. 

You can even serve the shrimp and fry sauce with lemon slices on the side for a burst of flavor and a lovely touch. 

Potato Wedges

If you still want to experience this dipping sauce with potatoes, go for potato wedges. They are a great way to elevate regular fries at your next dinner and a fun way to pair your outstanding Freddy’s Fry Sauce. 

Apart from being super easy to make, these potato wedges are seasoned with paprika, onion, and garlic powder and sprinkled with Cheddar cheese. All these flavors and a perfect crunch will be better with Freddy’s Fry Sauce. No doubt.

Fried Chicken Wings

Can you ever be tired of chicken wings that are tender and juicy on the inside and perfectly crunchy on the outside? We don’t think so. And considering they are a perfect addition to any gathering, you must try the fry sauce on them.

Marinade the chicken wings in a set of ingredients and fry them in hot oil for about 5 minutes. There isn’t a faster and tastier way to amplify your party. 

Besides, you can make the sauce while the wings are marinating and let them sit in the fridge until just before serving the wings.

How to Store Freddy’s Fry Sauce

As with other sauces, if you use and store it properly, there is no reason a jar of homemade Fry Sauce won’t keep well. 

Rather than storing it correctly, you must ensure users always take a clean spoon when serving or using the sauce. A dirty spoon can contaminate the sauce even if you store it properly.

Store Freddy’s Fry Sauce in the Fridge

To refrigerate Freddy’s Fry Sauce, you need an airtight container or a glass jar with a tight-fitting lid. Fry sauce just out of the fridge taste so much better.

Store Freddy’s Fry Sauce in the Freezer

Unlike other cream-based sauces, storing Freddy’s Fry Sauce in the freezer is possible. You need to follow a few recommendations. Don’t use glass containers since they could break once the sauce expands. It’s better to use plastic containers.

If you decide to store it in the freezer bags, divide it into portions so you can thaw as much as you can eat. Pouring the fry sauce into an ice cube tray also works. You can put it in the freezer and then put the cubes in a plastic bag. 

You can store Freddy’s Fry Sauce in the freezer for up to 6 months.
