The sauce’s origins

The sauce remoulade was well-known for a long time, and there were both hot and cold versions: in both cases, the base was made up of oil, vinegar, salt, herbs, and occasionally other ingredients such as raisins or anchovies, followed by the mustard; in other words, it was essentially a rich vinaigrette.

Vincent La Chapelle came up with the notion of adding “velouté,” a roux-based binding agent, in the eighteenth century. François Marin wrote a recipe for “Provence butter” in the Suite des Dons de Comus in 1742, which included garlic cloves boiled in water, crushed with salt, pepper, capers, and anchovies, and then blended with oil. The egg yolk will arrive later in this recipe, making it closer to aioli.

In 1806, André Viard, in his famous book “The Imperial Cook”, transformed this remoulade recipe as he put in place of the roux simply an egg yolk.

He underlines that the binding is aided by dripping the oil into another dish, drop by drip. Same as an Indian remoulade but without mustard. This would be the first time in the contemporary age that a cold stable sauce that is emulsified has been stated.

He also gives a sauce called mayonnaise (the first certificate of the term published) but which is not an emulsion but rather a sauce related to velouté and jelly in the same book.

Antonin Carême did not discover evidence of a cold “magnonaise” emulsified with egg yolk until 1815.
