A Taste of Canada ~ Chalet Sauce

I'm not a fan of chalet sauce but I know a lot of people are.  So here is a shared post from The Black Pepper Corn blog.

Swiss Chalet Secret Sauce Copycat Recipe

Swiss Chalet is more than just a restaurant, it is a Canadian institution. Every Canadian has been to Swiss Chalet, and these restaurants are packed, many times of the week all over the country, especially for Sunday lunch. One popular tradition is to go to Swiss Chalet after church, for what is coined ‘Christian Chicken’.
There are many great things to order at Swiss Chalet, but the most popular is their quarter chicken dinner. Delicious rotisserie chicken, crispy fries, a bun and their famous dipping sauce. The Swiss Chalet dipping sauce is easily the most popular item at Swiss Chalet. A great mix of spices with a nice tang, this dipping sauce is great for the chicken, fries and even the bun. You can purchase packets of the mix to make the sauce at home, but I wanted to try and make my own version of the sauce.

This copycat recipe is quite simple to make and it is pretty darn close to the original Swiss Chalet sauce. It has the perfect colour, the spices are similar to the restaurant version, and the vinegar matches the tang. Everyone in the family loved the sauce and said it was surprisingly close to the Swiss Chalet original.
