A Norfolk native favorite, this Virginia White Sauce is a thick and creamy sauce that became a popular dip at a favorite local Mexican restaurant!

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ teaspoonsdried oregano
  • 1 ½ teaspoonsgarlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoonground cumin
  • 1 teaspooncrushed red pepper
  • ½ cupmilk ((personally i like to add more to thin it out))
  • 2 cupsmiracle whip ((mayonnaise can be used))

Directions

  1. 1

    In a medium bowl or large measuring cup, mix together the spices.

  2. 2

    Then whisk in the milk until combined (note: I personally like to make this thinner than the original recipe calls for. Add a little milk at a time and whisk until it reaches your desired consistency.)

  3. 3

    Finally, whisk in the Miracle Whip (or mayonnaise, if using).

  4. 4

    Cover with plastic wrap and put into the refrigerator for at least 48 hours. This is very important to give the flavors time to marry together. It won’t taste the same if you don’t give it time to chill.

  5. 5

    Serve with tortilla chips.
