Magic has always been a key ingredient in the Duke’s Mayonnaise story. Born in the kitchen of entrepreneur Eugenia Duke in 1917, Duke’s Mayonnaise, the eponymous sandwich spread, quickly gained a devoted following for its unique tang and versatility. Over the next century, Duke’s evolved from a regional touchstone into the bona fide culinary phenomenon it is today. In honor of the company’s one hundredth anniversary, Garden & Gun has asked three acclaimed Southern chefs to share a favorite recipe using the classic kitchen staple. From pimento cheese hush puppies to a butterbean salad to one seriously decadent crawfish roll, the following dishes highlight the delicious results of pairing one culinary legend with another.
