What kind of sauce did I "invent"?

What kind of sauce did I "invent"? - Cooked Food on White Ceramic Plate

One day I had an idea for a special "sauce" to use on (chicken) burgers. The basic idea was to give it some sort of "salad dressing" like taste.

The basic ingredients are cream cheese, mustard, vinegar and freshly ground black pepper. Plus a bit of salt and maybe some herbs I had lying around (mainly tarragon).

Now, I know I probably didn't invent something completely new, so my question is, what kind of sauce have I created? Are there similar widely known (named) ones?



Best Answer

Assuming you didn't over-use the vinegar, and mainteined the spreadable consistency of the cream-cheese, I think what you've invented is also known as a sandwich spread.

Answer 2

When in doubt how to name anything, revert to the go-to language of cuisine: French and I would say:

Marriage de fromage, moutarde et herbes

(Marriage of cheese, mustard and herbs just sounds so much more sexy in French and black pepper is kind of a herb and you're not giving away the full recipe)
