This sauce is essentially a fresh mayonnaise combined with fresh herbs; sour additions such as capers, cornichons, and vinegar; and a little hard-boiled egg for bulk. The combination is delightful, especially with fried foods, including French fries! It is served with hot foods even though the sauce is cold, but don’t sauce the food until it is time for service so the mayonnaise doesn’t separate due to the heat.
