Top 8 Easy Condiments to Make at Home

by Sarah Pope / Updated: Mar 6, 2025 / Affiliate Links ✔

Want to take a very decisive step toward health?

Ditch those MSG, GMO-sweetened, rancid seed oil, additive-loaded dressings and sauces from the store and start making your own!

No bottled sauces or dressings compare to the flavor and quality of homemade salad dressings and sauces – even the organic brands.

Not only will you be doing your health a huge favor by taking this step, but you will be saving quite a bit of money too! 

Healthy Dressing & Condiments Video How-to

I demonstrate 8 recipes in the video below.

You will quickly see how fast and easy it is to make these sauces even when a time crunch is part of your normal daily routine.

Here is the list of what is covered:

  1. Basic salad dressing (:18)
  2. Healthy mayonnaise (3:31)
  3. Homemade ketchup (5:05)
  4. Teriyaki sauce (6:28)
  5. Barbecue sauce (6:59)
  6. Sweet and sour sauce (7:18)
  7. Cocktail sauce (7:33)
  8. Thousand Island dressing (7:50)

Other recipes to try not covered in the video include a homemade maple kombucha salad dressing, raspberry vinaigrette and homemade honey mustard.

    After it’s fermented, adding some vinegar to taste will help it keep even longer.

    Is there a possible substitute for whey in the ketchup recipe?

    A friend of mine shared this site with me and I am so happy she did! I love traditional cooking, my Nourishing Traditions cookbook and am trying to heal my digestive system w/this kind of food, so you are a fabulous resource :o)! I tried 2 of your recipes this morning: the almond pancakes and was trying to make egg-salad w/homemade mayo. Unfortunately, I think I overblended? on the mayo (was trying to make a larger batch) and it all separated :o(. Do you know if there is a way to salvage it and restore the creamy consistency? I’d hate to waste all that expensive oil. Thanks for the advice!

    For the mayo, is it okay to be eating the eggs raw?

    I love the videos. They are quick and to the point and show how quick and easy it is to make things from scratch. And, when you are trying to convince others, it is much easier to share a video than to say “here, read this.”

    Hi again Sarah-thank you for the answers I meant to ask one more thing. When you make the mayo with coconut oil do you melt it first if it is winter and is solid?

    Thanks again

      Hi Lara, yes – warm it gently on the stovetop. Just enough to melt it fully. Don’t heat it up too hot as you don’t want to cook the egg yolk in the mayo! 🙂

    Hi Fran, I do videos periodically just to mix things up a bit and to provide a different medium of learning for those who are more visually oriented.
