How to Enjoy this Onion Ring Sauce?
- Onion Rings: the most obvious way to enjoy this delicious dip. I highly recommend these air fryer onion rings for the perfect amount of crispiness.
- Veggies: for a fresh take on a veggie platter, serve with a side of ranch and this sauce!
- French Fries: I just made some air fryer French fries and air fryer potato wedges that go amazing with this sauce, but you can also dip almost anything in this sauce…
- Slathered… onto burgers, zesty pizza sliders, a simple ‘n tasty tomato sandwich and more. Also think about trying it with garlic aioli!
- As a Dip: I love dipping mushroom quesadillas or cheese quesadillas, and baked tortilla chips into this sauce.
