Remoulade
Danish remoulade: a cold mayonnaise sauce with finely chopped pickles and vegetables, tinted yellow with turmeric or curry, mildly tangy and sweet.
Danish remoulade is yellower, sweeter and chunkier than the German herb remoulade and is sold in Scandinavian food sections, by mail order or in Denmark itself. German-style remoulade is easy to find in German-speaking countries, while in English-speaking countries remoulade is not stocked everywhere.
Substitute:
Mayonnaise with finely chopped pickles, a little pickle brine, a pinch of sugar and a small pinch of turmeric or curry powder comes very close to the Danish original, whereas ready-made German remoulade tastes more herby and less sweet.
