What Is Different Between Fry Sauce and Copycat Zax Sauce Recipe

The main difference between fry sauce and Zax Sauce is their ingredients. Fry sauce typically includes a combination of ketchup and mayonnaise. 

At the same time, Zax Sauce is known for its unique blend of mayonnaise, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and paprika.

Both sauces are often used as a condiment for french fries and onion rings. 

Still, fry sauce is also popular in burger joints as an alternative to ketchup. Meanwhile, Zax Sauce is primarily found at the restaurant chain Zaxby’s.

While both sauces add flavor and creaminess to fried snacks, the bolder taste of Zax Sauce might be preferred by those looking for something more adventurous than traditional fry sauce.

Ultimately, it comes down to personal preference when choosing between these two dipping sauces.

Pro Tips:

When making this sauce, remember to let it rest in the fridge before serving! This will allow more of its flavors and complexities to meld together.

A few hours should be enough time for you, and I love to make this copycat sauce up and then leave it in the refrigerator overnight. So, by the time I am ready to serve my Air Fryer Chicken Tenderloins .up, the kids have a great dipping sauce that is already prepared.

Variations:

Just like the Zax sauce, you can alter this in several ways. Some of my favorite changes are:

• Spicy Version: Add some hot sauce, cayenne pepper, or red chili flakes. Some like lots of black pepper in the copycat recipes.
• Sweet Version: Add maple syrup, granulated sugar, or even honey.
• Zesty Version: Add some dried herbs, or even thyme, rosemary, Italian Seasoning, or Ranch Seasoning Mix.

How To Store:

Storage: For best results, make this recipe about 12 to 24 hours ahead of time, cover it tightly with plastic wrap, and place it into the refrigerator. It will last for about two weeks when kept in the fridge in a stored container.

Freezing: Because the ingredients do not freeze well, freezing is not recommended.
