Gourmet Big Mac Sauce

"Entered for safe-keeping, because every now and then I get a craving for a Big Mac and Its Sauce. From Nathan Myhrvold & Maxime Bilet's "Modernist Cuisine at Home". This version is fancier and less sweet than McDonald's sauce, although the exact flavor depends on your choice of mustard and pickles. (Neutral oils: beef tallow, canola or rapeseed, chicken fat, clarified butter, refined coconut oil, corn oil, duck fat, grapeseed oil, refined peanut oil, pork lard, safflower oil, soybean oil, and sunflower oil.)"
