I followed the recipe it to the tee, it was creamy i will give it that but it tasted awful, I used very little of it as I hated to waste all the time and effort it took to prepare but. , I had to add more mayo and mustard and some of my green tomato relish before it was edible... I won't be wasting all the ingredients it took for this recipe again.
