How To Make McDonald’s Sriracha Mac Sauce At Home

Recently, McDonald’s added a brand-new dipping option to their arsenal of Chicken McNugget sauces: the Sriracha Mac Sauce. A spicy take on the ever-popular Big Mac Sauce McDonald’s is known for, the new condiment features a touch of Sriracha rooster sauce.

Exactly how much Sriracha, however, is the question.

In one of HellthyJunkFood’s latest episodes, JP and Julia try to recreate the new McNugget sauce in their test kitchen.

Check out their Sriracha Mac Sauce Recipe:

Some of the essential ingredients feature dehydrated minced onions, mayonnaise, French dressing, ketchup, white vinegar, sugar, mustard, lemon, and relish. Finally, they add the special ingredient: Sriracha. You can check out the video to see how they pulled off the Sriracha Mac Sauce recipe in detail.

The YouTube chefs also note that simply adding Sriracha to McDonald’s Mac Sauce did not yield the same results visually, but the flavors were pretty close. In the video, JP and Julia go through a few different variations of the condiment recipe as well host a blind taste test between the original and homemade sauces.
