Classic Russian Dressing

If you’re a Thousand Island fan, it’s likely you’ll love this Russian dressing just as much, if not more. Both sauces have similar origins and start with that delicious combination of mayonnaise and ketchup or tomato-based chili sauce (such as Heinz Chili Sauce). It’s super easy to make and won’t take more than five minutes to prepare, but it’ll substantially increase the tastiness of whatever you’re slathering it on (think: sandwiches , burgers , and french fries ).

What Is Russian Dressing?

Russian dressing is a condiment made from mayonnaise and ketchup-style chili sauce or ketchup and, depending on the recipe, a variety of other ingredients, like Worcestershire sauce, horseradish, and paprika.

What’s the Difference Between Russian and Thousand Island Dressings?

The internet has blurred the lines between Russian and Thousand Island dressing. They both start with mayonnaise and tomato-based chili sauce or ketchup and then diverge from there. One of the typical differences between the two is the addition of relish in Thousand Island dressing, giving it a touch more sweetness and texture. Russian dressing is known to be a bit spicier and less sweet and traditionally, in older recipes, it actually contained caviar which some theorize to be the idea behind the name Russian.
