This sauce is delicious as written. It would probably be delicious on vegetables as well as other seafood.

I add 2 teaspoons of prepared horseradish and 2 tablespoons of 1/8 inch dice of a red, not too sweet, apple (Granny Smiths do not work here IMO as they are too tart) to the sauce and it is delicious. I also use my adjusted sauce for other fish and shellfish dishes. It is great with poached or baked salmon, with shrimp cooked any way, as a alternative to tartar sauce for fish and chips, or use it as the sauce you mix in for a cold pasta salad with bay shrimp or poached salmon.
