Ingredient	Quantity	Notes
Mayonnaise	1/2 cup	The creamy base. Go for your favorite brand; it makes a difference! For a healthier option, consider using light mayonnaise.
White Vinegar	1/4 cup	The tang-master! White vinegar provides the classic zing. You can also use apple cider vinegar for a slightly different flavor profile, but white vinegar is generally preferred.
Sugar	2 tablespoons	The sweet talker. Balances the vinegar perfectly. Adjust to your preference – more if you like it sweeter, less if you don’t.

White Onion, finely chopped	1 tablespoon	Fresh is best! Chop it super fine, almost minced, so it blends seamlessly into the sauce. Consider soaking the chopped onion in cold water for a few minutes to mellow out its sharpness.
Dried Parsley	1 teaspoon	A touch of freshness and a pop of color. Fresh parsley, finely chopped, can also be used.
Onion Powder	1/2 teaspoon	Amplifies that amazing onion flavor. Make sure your onion powder is fresh for the best results.
Garlic Powder	1/4 teaspoon	Adds a subtle savory undertone. A little goes a long way!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Your Subway Sweet Onion Sauce Queries Answered

Can I use a different type of vinegar?

While white vinegar is recommended for the most authentic flavor, you can experiment with apple cider vinegar for a slightly different tang. Consider the intensity of the vinegar and adjust the sugar accordingly to maintain a balanced flavor profile.

Can I reduce the amount of sugar?

Absolutely! Adjust the sugar to your preferred level of sweetness. Taste as you go and find your perfect balance. According to the American Heart Association, you can still enjoy your food by reducing sugar. Consider using a natural sweetener like honey or maple syrup in small quantities for a slightly different flavor.

How long does the sauce last in the refrigerator?

This sauce will last in the refrigerator for up to a week, stored in an airtight container. Make sure the container is properly sealed to prevent the sauce from absorbing odors from the refrigerator.

Can I freeze this sauce?

Freezing isn’t recommended, as the mayonnaise can separate and change the texture of the sauce. It’s best enjoyed fresh! The separation can result in a watery and less appealing sauce after thawing.

What can I use instead of white onion?

If you’re in a pinch, you can use a very small amount of red onion, but be aware it will alter the flavor slightly. Make sure to chop it very finely. You can also use shallots, which have a milder and sweeter flavor than red onions.
