Notes & Wine Advice
Serving Suggestions
Serve this spicy vegan Buffalo sauce with plant-based nuggets, cauliflower bites, veggie burgers, fries, roasted potatoes, or grilled vegetables. It also makes a flavorful spread for sandwiches and wraps.Recipe Notes
For a completely gluten-free sauce, check that the sriracha, mustard, vegan mayonnaise, and nondairy butter are certified gluten-free. The sauce becomes slightly thicker after chilling.Variations
Add extra sriracha or cayenne pepper for more heat. For a milder sauce, use slightly less sriracha. A splash of lemon juice or apple cider vinegar adds extra acidity and freshness.Storage
Store the sauce in a clean airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks, or follow the shortest storage recommendation of the individual ingredients used.Wine Advice
An off-dry Riesling balances the spicy sriracha with gentle sweetness and fresh acidity. A chilled Sauvignon Blanc is a good drier alternative.Nutrition values
