Hellmann’s Dijonnaise



Hellmann’s Dijonnaise is what I consider a “hidden jewel” in the condiment world. Why? Well, firstly because for me, it’s relatively hard to find because only one local grocery store sells it. Secondly, it’s a delicious combination of Dijon mustard with a hint of mayonnaise in the background.  If you like mustard and if you even remotely like mayonnaise you will love this dijonnaise.

Taste wise, it’s slightly spicy Dijon mustard that has a tang of mayonnaise lingering in the background. The mayonnaise isn’t overwhelming because it’s truly only a hint. Squirted onto a sandwich, it resembles regular ole mustard but it’s the taste that I feel truly transforms any boring sandwich.  It gives a sandwich a little zip – deli turkey, chicken and ham – even hamburgers I’ve put this on. Granted it can be used on anything, but these are the few staples that I like it on the most.

According to the label a honey dijonnaise can be created by mixing dijonnaise with honey.  I may actually have to give that a try on grilled chicken sandwiches.

A serving size is 1 teaspoon, which calculates out to 0 points plus values.

QUESTION:
What is one of your favorite condiments?
